The 12th Commandment Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 Exceptional http://www.bustler.net/index.php/article/swedish_artist_jonas_dahlberg_to_design_july_22_memorial_sites_in_norway/ Visitors begin their experience guided along a wooden pathway through the forest. This creates a five to ten minute contemplative journey leading to the cut. Then the pathway will flow briefly into a tunnel. This tunnel leads visitors inside of the landscape and to the dramatic edge of the cut itself. Visitors will be on one side of a channel of water created by the cut. Across this channel, on the flat vertical stone surface of the other side, the names of those who died will be visibly inscribed in the stone. The names will be close enough to see and read clearly — yet ultimately out of reach. The cut is an acknowledgement of what is forever irreplaceable. - continued at link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vilandil Tasardur Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 What a beautiful design. Just a resounding example of "getting it right". Art is often most beautiful when reflecting our most tragic of emotions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
