Allegra 1/27/08

I chose the Cimitero degli Inglesi (English Cemetery) in the Piazzale Donatello for my location. There are many graves packed into this small cemetery that it is almost overwhelming. It was built in 1828 but now is in the center of a very busy interesection and the noise from the traffic disrupts the tranquility and sanctity of a cemetery. I am interested in finding ways to recatorgerize the graves as well as explore the relationship between the interior of the cemetery and its surroundings.

Photographs are not allowed inside the cemetery but I have linked a few images with views from the Piazzale Donatello.
