The primary material employed was semi reflective, laminated glass sandwiching an interlayer of coloured film. The glass panels were vertically stabilized by triangular anodised aluminium edge beams at the top of the installation as well as at the base (hidden below the earth). Like a stack of cards, there was no visible vertical support, the whole being held together by translucent structural silicone.

The installation insinuated itself into its context like a chameleon. Nothing within the context was altered. Sometimes the semi-reflective glass surfaces even gave the ambiguous impression that there was no installation to be seen.
