This interactive sculpture is reminiscent of Buddhist prayer wheels in Tibet. Prayer wheels create a prayer of compassion when they are spun. The five colors of the Led’s and the orientation borrow from feng-shui and strive to represent harmony. The principle of compassion lies at the heart of all religious, ethical and spiritual traditions, calling us to treat all others as we wish to be treated ourselves.
