Description: Development reel of my visualization of the American COVID-19 victims in form of the Washington Monument recreated only from stacked coffins. Art has always commented on bad developments in society, it might be hurtful but is part of the democratic process. Final video: youtu.be/4DFanN6k9PI All coffins have the size 180 x 60 x 35 cm (0.378 m³), the obelisk has a volume of 29439.134 m³ which would result in a total number of 77881 coffins. However, since you can't stack the coffins without gaps in between if you want to retain the shape of the monument, this simulation only has 66075 coffins. Music: Kai Engel - Homeroad (CC BY)
