GLGDGG members make 'Before I die...' wall
Before I Die is a global public art project that invites people to reflect on their lives and share their personal aspirations in public space.
Begun by artist Candy Chang (after losing someone she loved) and friends on an abandoned house in the New Orleans neighbourhood, the project is about remembering what is important to you and creating public spaces that better reflect what matters to us as a community and as individuals.
Inspired by this, the Good Life, Good Death, Good Grief stakeholder event last November provided delegates with the opportunity to contribute to their own Before I Die wall, created in chalk and black paper inside the walls of the conference room at Edinburgh Zoo.
Photos of the Edinburgh Before I die wall are available here.
