Sheffield Covid Memorial, Balm Green Gardens, Sheffield by George King Architects
A steel weeping willow design. Describing the inspiration for the work, George King said: 'A willow has a strong trunk, which symbolises how people worked together to create the strength needed at such a difficult time.' Quotes on the inside of the steel columns are 'memories and experiences of the pandemic' which had been collected on postcards. King added: 'Local poets took fragments of them and tied them together into a single poem, so as you walk around the sculpture you experience a unique piece of literature'.
