The sculpture is made of hammered 32 oz. copper over a stainless steel frame and measures approximately 5.5 feet (1.7 m) x 4 feet (1.2 m) x 5 feet (1.5 m). Its condition was deemed "treatment needed" by the Smithsonian Institution's "Save Outdoor Sculpture!" program in March 1993. The sculpture is administered by the University of Oregon.
