"77 Minutes in Their Shoes" Exhibit
“77 Minutes in Their Shoes” is a collaborative exhibit conceptualized and hosted by Lives Robbed, with photographs by Sarah Sudhoff. It honors the Robb Elementary School shooting victims and their families. The goal of the exhibit is to continue the necessary conversations around gun violence and put a face to the number one killer of children in America - guns.
The exhibit features photographs of the shoes worn by twelve of the student victims when they were killed during the mass shooting at Robb Elementary in Uvalde, TX. The exhibit also features the weighted vest hero teacher Eva Mireles wore during her workouts - a fitting symbol of her strength. Accompanying the shoes/vest, are photographs of the victims’ families with their loved ones items.
We would like to thank the famillies who participated in the exhibit. We will never stop sharing our loved ones with the world and fighting to remember the twenty-one.
Thank you, Monica, Felix and Kimberly, Julian, Jacob and Veronica, Adalynn, Javier and Gloria, Nazarea, Juan and Maria, April, Nikki and Brett, Jose, Vincent and Melinda, Deanna, Jerry and Veronica, and Sandra.

The exhibit was held at Canopy Projects Gallery in Austin, Texas; intentionally timed with the start of the 89th Texas Legislative Session.

The main gallery space was adorned with four floor to ceiling triptychs, featuring black and white photographs of the families with their loved ones’ items. In addition to the photographs, there were two school desks, flanking Eva’s vest, covered in pictures of the twenty-one, created by Javier Cazares (Jackie Cazares’ dad).

The exhibit is currently on display at The Health Museum in Houston, Texas. The mission of The Health Museum is to foster wonder and curiosity about health, medical science and the human body.

Gun violence is one such reality.
