Anniversary – An Act of Memory, was a series of performances by artist Monica Ross, reciting, from memory, all 30 Articles from the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. This started as a solo performance but over time, she invited other people to co-recite articles with her so it became 60 acts of solo, collective and multi-lingual recitations from memory of the entire Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

Acts of Memory in association with Graeae was performed at National Paralympic Day featuring the Mayor of London’s Liberty Festival 2015 and supported by Foundation for FutureLondon. www.actsofmemory.net
