Because 22,722 crystals represent the 62 ¼ years that Linda Pace lived, the sculpture has a connection to her life. The piece invites spectators to reflect on the value of time and the events that mold our lives by examining themes of memory, mortality, and the transient nature of existence through its delicate materials and elaborate design.
