Several participants in the design kick-off mentioned light & luminosity as important elements for this memorial. Light has the power to suggest healing & spirituality with it's ability to illuminate the darkest situation. The associations with candlelight, a hearth & the warmth of the sun form an opposite pole to the dark winter of death.
What also seems worth investigating is the play of light & shadow both day & night, with natural light filtering through some patterned scrim & the play of illumination on an iconic form at night.
Like life, light is fleeting...and precious.
