Missing Persons in Latin America Memorial

This project was the winner of an open call to sculptors and visual artists in 2009 by the Montevideo City Council. The site´s inauguration was held on December 10, 2009, at the Memory Square in the city of Montevideo.

During the decades of state terrorism in Latin America (1960-1990), thousands of people were arrested and disappeared facing oppression. This work evokes their presence and their struggle for a better world.
