Community Participation
We will invite school students of Lahore, from both the state and private sectors, to be a part of this Project. They will come to the Project venue two weeks prior to the installation opening of and write on a tag the name and age of the child that it is dedicated to, and on the other side they will write the name of the person who donated it.
Students will then tie their handwritten notes around each of the fabric roses or hang them on hooks placed on wooden panels surrounding the rose structure. Students will then “plant” each of the fabric roses in the semi-circular box-like structures so slowly by slowly the installation will be assembled by children from Pakistan in remembrance of children in Gaza.
The entire installation process will be videoed and shown both on social media and at the venue when the installation goes on display so the public can see the process behind it. We will also use a drone to capture the view of the installation from above, both in the day and at night.
