Grove of the Felled Olives

Grove of the Felled Olives is a free, web-based virtual memorial dedicated to the humans killed in Gaza  over the last year (Oct '23- Oct '24). No such physical memorial recognizing each individual exists as of yet. Pay your respects to each of the over 34,000 departed in a peaceful refuge for their memory. Come back at any point to pick up where you left off - every session in the grove begins at a new location. The grove includes a single memorial for the countless lives that remain unaccounted for.

I made this memorial to humanize the statistics and provide an accessible experience for people across the world to honor those lost. I hope this can be a respectful place for loved ones and strangers alike to reflect on our shared humanity. May we learn one day to be better.
