Description
The Smithsonian Institution, which surveyed the work as part of its "Save Outdoor Sculpture!" program in 1994, suggests the sculpture is made of wire mesh, fiberglass, and resin. It measures approximately 6.5 ft x 12 ft x 5 ft and is supported by a base of metal pipes, each of which are approximately 2 ft tall and have a diameter of 4 in. Smithsonian considers the work abstract and deemed its condition "treatment needed" the year it was surveyed. It is administered by the University of Oregon.
