Nunca Más Nunca Más (Never Again) is a monument to the disappeared of Guatemala. The outdoor installation consists of simple fired clay tiles bearing the names of people and villages. During the Rios Montt dictatorship in the early eighties approximately 440 villages in Guatemala were razed to the ground as part of a "scorched earth campaign." Inhabitants were killed or displaced and their lands were sold. Hundreds of thousands of Guatemalans remain displaced from their lands, and human rights violations continue. The finished ceramic tiles will be layered in the ground at the Peace Garden in Nathan Phillips Square.
