Event Details

The flickering light of a candle in the dark. A symbol of hope. Remembrance. The human spirit.

This moving and thought-provoking installation features over 4000 solar-powered LED candles placed along the sandstone blocks of Nawi Cove. Each candle stands for the increasing number of stateless people around the world and is an invitation to acknowledge their plight and tenacity.

Approach this humbling work, take in its beauty, its gravity and ponder the strength of the human spirit.
