As the fourth installment in the Floating Monuments series, the project continues an exploration of how monuments can function beyond fixed, commemorative objects—reimagining them as forms that move through the city, pointing to erased or suppressed histories, and engaging public life in real time.

Composed of concrete letters spelling the word “DIGNIDAD,” the work exists simultaneously as sculpture, language, and social proposition. Mounted on a flatbed truck, it moves through the city as both object and message, a monument that does not stay still long enough to become invisible. Building Brown Workshop was brought on as fabrication consultant and to fabricate the letters (excluding the concrete skim coat).
