A wide view of The Garden of Africa in Tunisia
THE director-general of the UN’s cultural agency Unesco, Audrey Azoula, inaugurated a garden in the coastal Tunisian town of Zarzis this week commemorating refugees who drowned while attempting to cross the Mediterranean.
The Garden of Africa (Le Jardin d’Afrique) is the concept of Algerian-French artist Rachid Koraichi, whose exhibition at the October Gallery in London was reviewed in the Star.
A Unesco plaque at the site pays homage to the shipwrecked who lost their lives in search of a better life “and in recognition of the commitment of artist Rachid Koraichi to fight indifference and give them a dignified final resting place.”
