Reflecting Absence

Reflecting Absence is a memorial concept that recognizes and honors those who have been lost or affected by tragedy, often through visual or physical means. Rather than focusing solely on the survivors or perpetrators, it emphasizes the importance of memory and mourning, encouraging visitors to reflect on the impact of the loss. This approach fosters understanding, empathy, and acknowledgment of the ongoing effects of trauma, helping communities and individuals process grief and preserve the dignity of those affected.
