Text theme: 
Working together with the families of the victims, it was agreed to engrave the victims’ names along with quotations that their loved ones felt captured the essence of their lives.
Artwork theme: 

This site-specific installation was dedicated to the memories of Professors Matthew Douglass, Michael Hogben, Aaron Saber and Phoivos Ziogas who were killed in the Fabrikant Shooting in the building, on August 24, 1992.

The use of  stone, metal, light and greenery in various juxtapositions sharply penetrates the public space yet invites interaction and assembly. Students who congregate and study in this area become part of a living memorial.
