Christchurch memorial installation  by brigette

Christchurch memorial installation

each chair represents one of the 185 lives lost in the 2011 Christchurch earthquake. …. recliners, deck chairs, baby capsules…...
Is this a permanent memorial? It certainly is an interesting way to remember those lost to the earthquake. Welcome to 365.

Thanks Nicole. I think it will become permanent. the location may change. The city is just starting to get back on its feet. Over 1000 buildings have been demolished in the CBD.

Very interesting memorial...looks very temporary, which perhaps emphasises the temporary nature of life, and that is exactly what natural disasters remind us of as well...

@ericdibosco A very moving tribute. Kind of temporary for now - until it finds it's rightful resting place…

Sometimes it takes something like this to show the full impact of lossing that many people at one time.
