The installation was created by 30 students in the glass class of 2007, two teaching assistants and art professor Don Hartman. The design, planning, creation and installation of the piece took nearly a year. The installation consists of 15 columns made up of 175 individual blown-glass pieces, each created by different students. Two of the columns are more than 10 feet high."Edgar Sinada was very well liked, and we all decided we wanted to honor his memory with a special piece of art," Hartman said. "This soon grew into a major installation as more and more people became involved. The pieces are of blues, greens and purples, which were Edgar's favorite colors."
