The Dreamers, Public sculpture in Sam Houston State University, Texas, US
The Dreamers rises 66 feet into the sky, constructed from white dolomite material that stands in contrast to the surrounding university grounds.
The sculpture emerged in 1995 through a collaboration of arts organizations aiming to establish substantial public art installations across American communities.
Artist Jaume Plensa created this sculpture to represent youth and possibility through the form of a young girl, incorporating elements of human shape and abstract design.
Visitors can explore the sculpture through digital audio guides and mobile applications that provide information about its construction and meaning.
The sculpture weighs 500 tonnes and features specialized construction methods that allow rainwater to create subtle acoustic effects throughout its structure.
