The Moving Wall
The Moving Wall is a reference to the way memorial displays, such as the Vietnam Veterans Memorial, update over time. It shows the number of years since a soldier’s death, with the "wall" gradually progressing forward as time passes. This means that as more years go by, more names are added and the memorial reflects the ongoing process of honoring fallen soldiers. Essentially, it’s a dynamic way to visualize how historical events are remembered, emphasizing the ongoing nature of remembrance and how the collective memory evolves over time.
