The Arizona 9/11 Memorial evokes tension between the human condition and the ability to triumph over adversity. The monoliths monolithic forms in bronze and aluminum will embrace the sun in an eternal choreography of light and shadow; commemorating the events of the morning of September 11, 2001. It is a place of remembrance and reflection, a place which can ultimately lead to healing and transformation. The inspiring 20’ tall Monoliths dare to embrace the complexities of tragedy; nestled into the earth it is a place of intimate contemplation and community reverence.
