Description
When viewed from one side of the installation, the outline of a human figure appears as a
negative space. Depicting the long history of mankind inhabiting earth, the human form passes through both the clear sparkly atmosphere and the floating blue globe.

The artwork fills the two story open space with thousands of sparkling glass beads. In the midst of this transparent spherical glass atmosphere, a group of tinted blue beads form a six-foot sphere representing the globe.
