Here, we can note how the “inscribing” practice of encapsulating eternity within the built bridge, of building the bridge to outlive individual human lives and project it towards an indefinite future, served a purpose to make the bridge a symbol going beyond individual life destinies in Mostar, to make it a “constant” within the lived space of the city. Consequently, the destruction of the bridge shook the citizens in profound ways, affecting both spatial and social frameworks. In such a way, the practice of (re)locating “constants” within the spatial framework of memory becomes especially important within a post-war context, in which the perceived stability of the spatial framework has been challenged and may need to be reassembled.
