The Aboriginal Memorial

Description: 

Commemorating the aboriginal lives lost in war and the resilience of indigenous peoples, The Aboriginal Memorial is made up of 200 hollow log coffins. These hollow logs were inspired by the mortuary ceremony of Central Arnhem Land where burial practices are performed to ensure safety for the spirit of the deceased.
