Memorial

Memorial: Love Loss and the Art of Remembrance is a lyrical and visually powerful exploration of how one community transformed anguish into action. Born from the temporary Highland Park Arts Memorial - sparked by artist/activist Jacqueline von Edelberg in response to the July 4th mass shooting - and evolved in Nashville after the Covenant School tragedy this book weaves poetry photography and personal reflection into a deeply moving journey through grief healing and hope. It captures how a public space became sacred ground how art gave form to sorrow and how the human need for connection turned mourning into movement. More than a tribute Memorial is a call to resist paralysis to create beauty in the face of darkness and to remember that healing begins when we come together.
