Eulogy
An art memorial for biodiversity loss.
Eulogy is an immersive art installation that mourns the loss of the species which no longer exist, and celebrates the life of those that are threatened. It will inspire action to support biodiversity in our regions.
The installation was launched in Squamish, July 2022 and has been re-installed in Squamish in August 2022. We'd love for it to continue to be brought to life, reach out to us to bring it to your community!
