The actual wood sculpture is located in the entrance to the Goodman Center. It is by well-known local artist, Harry Whitehorse. He is known for his wood and metal sculptures; as well as oil paintings. He will often use images related to his Hochunk Heritage. He has done a number of projects in which he has carved with the remains of a significant size tree. He would also involve local people and children in the process of defining the images for a sculpture, which he then interpreted into a finished piece.
