Preliminary budget for the realisation of the memorial: EUR 400,000
On December 26, 2004, Southeast Asia suffered one of the greatest natural disasters in history, killing a quarter of a million people. With 543 dead and some 1,500 wounded among the victims, this was a great tragedy to Sweden.
In conjunction with the 10th anniversary of the disaster, the Swedish government has decided to create a memorial site in Sweden to honour the memory of those who lost their lives, and to create a place where their relatives and friends can gather.

Seeking art for our TYPOGRAPHY ART-themed micro-exhibition to open on the evening of February 13th. The exhibit will take place in a new multi-function micro space existing in a larger well-known gallery in Highland Park.
The micro-space will serve as a book-place, work-room, and exhibition-area, and we're seeking to work with typography artists, or other kind of visual letter artists, through the entirety of our existence [in this particular space].
Please keep in mind that this space is very micro so the number of pieces that will be shown during any exhibit will be very limited, and will be mostly determined by the size of the accepted pieces.
