Memorial Benches

In the park, I went to the David Welch Winter Gardens and noticed there were a lot of benches there, too. I realized they all had a little plaque dedicated to someone that had passed away.

Daaf said: «All of a sudden, it looks like a graveyard».

I thought it was a curious place to deposit grief. In México, we place it on Day of the Dead shrines, and in Aberdeen in benches. There is something to be said about the idea of permanence in memorializing someone.

On my way back to my apartment, I realized that all the benches along the river were also dedicated to someone.
