The West Terrace Cemetery inspires me, like I hope it inspires you.

A unique area of the Adelaide Park Lands, its headstones date back to the victorian period with beautifully intricate designs and sullen angel faces.

The people buried here all tell a part of the history of the City of Adelaide, for better or for worse.

Often overlooked, the cemetery is also home to endangered species of native flora, the manmade structures slowly eroded as nature runs its course.

This area of the Park Lands inspires me to learn, to make and to live a life that I'm proud of.
