"Cuimhne"

Inspiring GardensCuimhne

Designer: Fiann O Nuallain
Contractor: Inspiring Gardens

The Irish language word Cuimhne means memory, but it can also be used to denote a memorial. It is the root of verbs to consider, to think, to reflect and to recollect.

The idea is to utilise an ancient form of human expression – earthworks, to give voice to what needs to be expressed – grief, remembrance, and acknowledgement. The theme is memory and memorial; Age old but also contemporary.
