Title supplied by Inventory cataloger.
The sculpture was built by Dwight Morrow High School students, Ann Gladstone, Mitchell Marcus, Marcy Greenberg, Marshall Burns and Steve Grossman as part of a four-week summer sculpture workshop conceived by Art Department Chairman Gary Preiss, and led by sculptor, Gil Hawkins. The high school donated money to have the original sculpture completely rebuilt by Paul Sisko in 1977. In 1993, the sculpture was again rebuilt. It is repainted every two years, and the original black color has been replaced by Indian red.
