This monument (seen here on the right) consists of flat surface areas at different levels with 3 large columns supporting upper levels. It is cantilevered over the cliff and hangs semi-suspended in the air reflecting Hadid's futuristic and dramatic buildings. The two levels in the middle which are connected to both monuments and suspended over the gorge constitute the meeting place or ''space in between".
Monument to Norma Merrick Sklarek
This giant monument (on the left) grid-like blocks which has the appearance of a monolithic block with subtracted right-angled prisms. This refers to Sklarek's architectural style of powerful, pure and simple geometrical lines, and functional aims. The monuments and there connected points are meant to convey the idea of a fusion of different styles. They can be seen as a spaceship (Hadid) docking into a solid base structure (Sklarek).
