The Plan

The Iraq Memorial To Life helps us acknowledge and remember all who have lost their lives. It provides viewers & visitors an experience through which they better understand the human cost of the war. It opens a path toward reconciliation and reparation.

Objective

To create and install a memorial honoring those killed as a result of the hostilities in Iraq since March 19, 2003. To make the Memorial available for continued updating and appropriate, respectful use at other locations.

Design

A small memorial marker to represent each life; a configuration that helps us to envision the over one million three hundred thousand lives.

Place

Public Parks in cities across America
