- Description
The cartoon shows the Christchurch Cathedral completely covered in silt. Someone outside the frame comments 'Silt! A lot better than cardboard!' Context: Silt in Christchurch is cheap and abundant after the erathquakes. A design for a temporary cathedral has been outlined by renowned Japanese architect Shigeru Ban. The proposed $4 million temporary replacement for Christchurch's destroyed cathedral made of shipping containers and cardboard has been met with scepticism from residents of the quake-hit city who wonder whether another church is really what the city needs right now.
