For the past few years on TDoR The Outside Project has hosted a Trans Day of Remembrence vigil where community members participate in poetry readings/speeches and come together to hold space for our community whom are no longer with us.

In Novemeber 2022 we unvield the Trans Day of Remembrance Memorial Sculpture – Remembering All Unknown.

 About the

 Trans Angel 

Trans-Angel was commissioned by The Outside Project as a permanent memorial sculpture to Trans+ people who have been murdered by acts of transphobia against them and all ‘unknown’ who have died due to systemic oppression and by taking their own lives.

The sculpture was installed in the southwest corner of Crossbones Park for Trans Day of remembrance on the 20th November 2022.

The day was marked by a service for the 300 (recorded) Trans-people murdered since the 20th November of the previous year. There was a ritual where the attending people laid a total of 300 bamboo sticks painted in pink, white and blue (the colours of the Trans flag), around the sculpture – then a reading and poetry to acknowledge Trans-souls across times, faiths and cultures.
