Located in front of the new College of Education, the sculpture encapsulates ideas that are often associated with learning and education, namely transformation, illumination, and effort. To create a three-dimensional artwork that embodies the process of change and growth, a flat plane is conceptually cut and folded. As light is a universal metaphor for the acquisition and dissemination of knowledge, both sunlight and night-time illumination are incorporated into the artwork. Depending on the time of day and how sunlight hits the sculpture, the resulting light and shadow patterns created by the circular perforations will change throughout the day. The design also creates a welcoming gathering space that can be inspiring, reflective, or simply joyful.

With a background in landscape architecture and public health, James Dinh founded the design practice "Studiofolia" with the simple mission of using public art to connect people to memory and place. As a spatial storyteller, James believes that public art should be an open form of engagement.
