The pillar of fire that goes in front of the camp is made of iron, stone and bronze - materials taken from our natural environment. Leading and connecting back to it, striking deep and strong roots into this earth, whose roots have gathered our sons and daughters into its warm bosom.
Around it the pigeons carry the torch that screams out of the ground.
