WAKE
This space is a representation of a wake.
The closed coffin could contain an unknown individual,
and represents the many nameless individuals that
have lost their lives as a result of racial inequality,
injustice and violence.
The seats are for anyone to sit, reflect and remember
or grieve the loss of a loved one.
Oftentimes, after a violent act in the community or to
an individual, families did not have the occasion to
grieve, to mourn or to say farewell.
We offer this holy space as a place for that occasion.
