The Last Child

The Last Child commemorates all the innocent children who have lost their lives to gun violence in Gqeberha’s Northern Areas. May there never be another.

The statue was created by Duncan Stweart & Zano Ntobela using the clothing of 20 deceased children & encased in bulletproof glass. We need change, we need to take action, & we need to make sure our children are safe. We remember the lives of all those killed in the cross-fire.

Morning from the unveiling of #thelastchild! National Glass are here to commemorate the moment.

[The Last Child @TheLastChildZA]

They needed people to hear the cries of the lost youth and create awareness on a national level so that something could be done about the gun violence in the community.

[The Last Child @TheLastChildZA]

National Glass realised there is a major socio-economic crisis in Gqerberha that is affecting their staff and their community and nothing is being done about it.
