The 700 seat Cathedral Anglican Church made out of cardboard which has been put up in the St John's Latimer Square site in town. The $5.3 million structure has already been heavily noticed and named the 9th best global attraction for globetrotters to visit in 2013 by the Sydney Morning Herald. Although it is thought to be temporary the structure has been built as a permenent structure and is expected to last a minimum of 50 years and has been said to stay as long as people want it to. It is serving the memory of what was lost, just as my collection is.
The building looking broken and crumbled. These holes in the building left holes in Christchurch's heart which I will display using opening in several of my garments.
The Christchurch Cathedral at front on after the 2010 earthquake. The towers had crumbled.
The Rose Window stain glass which is situated in the centre of the Christchurch Cathedral. The particular window design has sparked many designs for my collection.
The Chalice in full form at night time before the earthquakes.
