The Johnny Cash Project

The Johnny Cash Project is a unique communal work, the result of thousands of contributions from artists and fans around the world. On the project website, participants can create a unique and personal portrait of Johnny Cash. These frames are combined and integrated into a collective whole: a crowdsourced music video for “Ain’t No Grave”, one of Cash’s last studio recordings before his death.
Strung together and played in sequence over the song, the individual hand-made portraits create a moving, ever evolving homage to this beloved musical icon. What’s more, as new people discover and contribute to the project, this living portrait continues to transform and grow, so it’s virtually never the same video twice.
