Words From War: Next Generation Veteran's Monument
in Vero Beach, Florida
Ross Power joined the members of Vero Beach Veterans: Next Generation to create a memorial to honor the fallen and all those who have served in the Iraq and Afghanistan era conflicts. Ross Power interviewed combat veterans from these conflicts, creating a documented oral history. From these interviews he integrated words that best captured the emotion and recollection of these Soldiers, Sailors, Marines and Airmen.
Power said, "This sculpture is Word Art . The words are authentic, straight from the veterans mouth. As you walk into and through this Memorial Sculpture, you will also hear inspiring & informing words through the use of your smart phone that will enable you to feel the true impact of the veterans actual experience through there own words."
