The Eye That Cries

Jesús María, Peru

The Eye that Cries (El Ojo que Llora in Spanish) is a memorial that was born as a private initiative designed to honor the thousands of victims of the internal conflict in Peru, to strengthen the collective memory of all Peruvians and to promote peace and reconciliation in the country. The Eye that Cries is part of a larger project called The Memory Alameda which will incorporate other art pieces, large extensions of green areas and the Museum of Memory (Yuyanapaq).
