Summary:
Abstract piece consisting of six beams formed into a teepee-like structure. The legs of the beams form a circle, and the tops of the beams flare outward and upward uniformly from this circle. A boulder bound by reinforced rods is suspended in the center of the beam structure. The piece is representative of the need to conform and lose a bit of individuality in order to learn new things.
