SHORTLISTED!

We’re delighted to share that we’ve been shortlisted (one of 8, from over 100 submissions) for the On The Record National Memorial to Journalists on the Frontline.

This significant commission, in partnership with the Royal Society of Sculptors, will create a permanent memorial at the National Memorial Arboretum in Staffordshire, with a sister piece at St Bride’s Church, London—honouring UK-based journalists, photographers and camera operators who have lost their lives reporting from conflict zones.

Our proposal reflects on themes of truth, risk and the relationship between conflict and everyday life.

We now move into the next stage, developing the design further ahead of the final selection.
