One of my original ideas was to write the award winners name etc onto the leaves that can then be attached to the tree. A similar idea has been used at the Raoul Wallenberg Memorial in Budapest, it has over 5,000 Holocaust victims names engraved onto the leaves as a commemoration. This tree is meant to be a lasting memory and is a similar design idea to what i want to create. The symbolism of the names on the leaves is the congratualatory, history and experience I want to capture within the piece for Frederick Gent School.
