On Saturday night at 9.30pm, artist Eric Rieger set out onto the streets of Minneapolis with digital photos of George Floyd, a video projector and a portable power supply.
He made a different kind of street art than what we’re used to – rather than painting a mural on a brick wall, he projected Floyd’s image across the city of Minneapolis, the very same city in which the 46-year-old unarmed black man was murdered on 25 May, after a white police officer held his knee on Floyd’s neck for eight minutes and 46 seconds.
