This sculptures eighth vast pillars allude to the towering limestone columns of the Boon County Courthouse in Lebanon, designed by architect Joseph T. Hutton. In this piece, a band encircling several of the columns acknowledges the Second Principal Meridian, a survey line used to create township boundaries after the U.C. Congress’ Land Ordinances of 17985. Atop one column, a small bronze ball serves as a head, transforming the pillar into a whimsical hula-hooper.
