The image of the eternal flame is used in many cultures as a continuous visual reminder of generations past. It is a particularly significant emblem in Jewish culture and is used religiously in Jewish synagogues: the ‘ner tamid’ hangs close to the Torah scrolls, representing their guiding light. Grey’s ‘Flame of Remembrance’, a three-foot-high sculpture with 44 Flames of Remembrance, is a memorial to the Jewish people killed during the Holocaust. By carving discernible features into the faces and including details such as kippah’s, men’s facial hair, women’s headdresses and variant lengths and styles of hair, Grey has given each face an individual identity. Another version of this work was exhibited at St Martin's School of Art in 1961, where Grey had been a pupil, before being cast in bronze and sent to Israel.
