Rolling hills of shattered glass contained within a concrete enclosure. This piece falls perfectly in line with much of Maya Lin's other work. Her eco-friendly work usually carries an emphasis on existing between the border of the natural world and the built environment. Groundswell embodies that philosophy to a T.
