The Standing With Giants art installation created by artist, Dan Barton, has been unveiled at the IBCC.

It incorporates 255 silhouetted life-size figures of Seafarers, Royal Marines, Army, and Airmen and 3 civilians who lost their lives during the 1982 war on The Falkland Islands with Argentina. This and the other display created, which is currently in the Falkland Islands, have been created to commemorate the 40th anniversary of liberation on June 14th, 2022.

The silhouettes are framed by poppy wreaths marking the installation’s purpose – recognition and remembrance.

They will be hosted at the Centre until the end of January and are free to visit as part of the IBCC offer.
