Wings Art Installation

Wings Art Installation

23 April 2025

We’re honoured to share a very special and moving addition to our space at Thames View Crematorium and Cemetery – a stunning crocheted Wings art installation, kindly donated by three incredible charities:

💜 Abigail's Footsteps
💜 The Worst Girl Gang Ever Foundation
💜 Willow's Rainbow Box

These wings were created from individually crocheted and knitted feathers, lovingly made by bereaved families and their loved ones. They form part of a wider ‘Wings’ art installation that featured in the ‘We Remember’ baby loss and pregnancy after loss exhibition at St George’s Arts Centre, Gravesend, in March 2025.

The exhibition was curated by the three charities, each of which shares a powerful commitment to supporting families through the heartbreak of baby loss and the journey of pregnancy after loss

At Thames View, we work closely with the midwifery team at Darent Valley Hospital and supporting local charities is important to us. We feel truly privileged to have been chosen as the home for this heartfelt piece of art.

The Wings are now proudly displayed in our waiting area, accompanied by a touching write-up from the charities. We hope they offer comfort, connection, and quiet reflection for all who visit.
