This project is based on the 75th Anniversary of the evacuation of the Gibraltarians during the Second World War to Tangiers (Morocco), Madeira (Portugal), London (England), Ballymena (Northern Ireland) and Jamaica. The Installation consists of a dialogue between the physical and poetic memory of the past and the present. Evacuation survivors, their sons and grand children have told stories which have filtered over the years in their families, giving a more humane view to this important chapter in Gibraltar ’s history which shaped today’s Gibraltarian identity.
