Description
Murase Studio was selected by the Oregon Fire Service and the Oregon Arts Commission to design and develop a statewide memorial that honors firefighters who have made the ultimate sacrifice and given their lives in the line of duty. Located in the new Oregon Public Safety Academy, the memorial is designed to evoke solace and inspiration to those who continue to serve and also to the public it protects. The design incorporates a granite wall with a bronze Maltese cross that lists the names of those fallen and a black granite stripe in the plaza with the inscription, "In the Line of Duty." (Murase Studio, 2005) The Oregon Arts Commission has ten Regional Arts Councils that provide delivery of art services and information. The Council for this location is: Mid-Valley Arts.
