'Reclaiming Spirit' or the Bali Memorial is located in Dunningham Reserve at Dolphin Point, in the eastern suburb of Coogee. It is a four-metre high bronze sculpture created by Sasha Reid in 2003, dedicated to the Australian victims of the Bali bombings in 2002. Twenty were residents of the eastern suburbs, including six members of the Coogee Dolphins rugby league team. The four metre high sculpture represents three linked figures signifying family, friends and community. Bowed in sorrow and remembrance, they comfort, support and protect each other. Joined together they form a strong and supported whole structure. It's a really powerful image against the sky, looking out across the Pacific Ocean.
