WHEN THE TEMPLE BELL TOLLS…

​

​

PROJECT OVERVIEW:

​

​

Designed to offer a slow, evolving, illumination towards a form of ritualistic cathartic release this immersive ceremony laid out to accommodate the easeful transition for up to 3,200 people transpired on a warm and still weekend upon the early days of June 2025.

​

To accomplish all of this certainly required a vast number of uniquely talented and divergent hands unitedly focused on creating something meaningful, monumental and sacredly engaging.

​

Therefore, in summary and respect, to all those who contributed their highly valued existence, sacrificed their temporary freedom for community, by offering up their own finances, materials, equipment with some bloody fingers via relational labour this is an accounting of what could be considered an impossible task in a society often focused on self and financial compensation.
