Excerpt from artist’s Impact Statement: "I wanted to incorporate the element of time due to the fact that time was running out for the beloved Indiana dunes as industrialization threatened to take over the land. The two hands seen at the top of the artwork are meant to represent Dorothy Buell’s hands as she protected and figuratively 'held up' the Indiana dunes."
