On the page will be the altar “Origin”, created by the Argentine artist Marcos López, and the first candles will be lit by the children of 10, Dalma, Gianinna, Jana, Diego Fernando and Diego Junior.
“The digital memorial seeks to become a popular altar, a tool available to all the people who supported him, followed him and made him a world-renowned idol,” explained the organizers of the tribute.
A counter will mark each person who lights a new candle for Diego.
“This great temple will contain, over time, different homage and meeting spaces so that the community can populate with their creations and be part of the memory and legacy of Diego“, said the renowned photographer and visual artist, who was inspired to create an eternal tribute as big and as diverse as the feelings that 10 generates.
The children of the best soccer player in history accompany the initiative “A Candle to Diego” and they highlighted the importance of being able to unite the “family of fans” that Maradona created, before which they invited people from all corners of the world to remember him, lighting a candle in this virtual memorial.
