COMMONWEALTH WAR GRAVES MEMORIAL

Project Goal

The new memorial presents itself as a counter debate within the existing memorial landscape of the Company’s Gardens.

Summary

The memorial essentially aims to enable the conversation between disparate time periods in a single landscape. It acts as the reflective mechanism that aims to sensitise the visitor to the atrocities suffered by the nameless in a conflict not their own. A landscape of contestation, challenging the implied normality, a place that becomes the voice of the forgotten in the conversations about our collective future.
