Caption

Memory Vessel is a sculpture by New Brunswick artist Peter Powning that commemorates 5 people who died in an explosion at a gas station in this spot on Jan 3rd 1974. Six other people were injured in that accident.

Created from stainless steel and tumbled glass made from rejected crystal lamps that were broken up into small shards. It's a canoe-like shell held up by undulating columns, recalling the city's nautical nature. At night, a soft glow emanates from LED lights within the glass vessel and from the podium underneath the structure.
