Founder's Memorial Abu Dhabi: The Constellation
The Constellation Might Just be the Best Thing About the Founder’s Memorial

The Founder's Memorial will be a popular place this Spring, a point of reflection to remember UAE founder Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan.
Located on the Abu Dhabi Corniche, you can find it where the first and second streets meet and comes right in time for the Year of Zayed celebrations. One of the most stunning parts is The Constellation artwork, read on in the gallery too find out why.
Ralph Helmick came up with the awesome artwork

Lit up by more than 2,000 lights, it's representative of him being a guiding light

The artwork weighs 250 tons, steel structure of the roof weighs 190 tons and more than 5,745 counterweights hold it together

It takes 1,110 cables to hold up the platonic solid shapes

The 30x30x30m structure made up of 1,327 suspended shapes that form his image
