Artists from all over the world are invited to participate in this project. The Iraqimemorial.org website is available in both English and Arabic language versions. The Iraqimemorial.org project site features a growing online exhibition of artist’s proposals featuring media ranging from traditional sculptural monuments and installations to experimental works utilizing performance, digital technologies and sound.
As a user generated content site, the project will continue to be realized dependant upon the participation of artists. New memorial proposals will be uploaded as they are received. The public is invited to view and rate the proposals on the site.
The submitted proposals may never be realized - the intent is to facilitate a process that allows for the expression of concepts as a collective, networked, creative act of remembrance that takes place in the present tense.
