Notable works
In 2005, Smith did a public art project engaging with the subject of Civil War reenactments, The Muster, involving participants who made uniforms and campsites and answered the question "What are you fighting for?" In an article in ArtNet News discussing art about Civil War reenactments, Brian Boucher says it "focused on the kitschy aesthetics of Civil War reenactment, referring to the conflict in only the most oblique way."
