As you enter the Welcoming Room of the Cedar River Watershed Education Center, you immediately come across this instalation of four tree roots and neon lights hanging from the ceiling.

Artist: Dan Corson

Artist's Statement: "Walking into the welcoming building under sod covered roofs, the root ceiling helps conjure the underground world that allows trees to absorb water through the gnarled masses of a tree root system. Argon (green tubes) and Krypton (purple tubes) gasses illuminate the ceiling while mimicking the controted root patterns. In addition, the tubes weave in the association of flowing water and flowing electricity (the Cedar Falls Hydroelectic Facility) into the Snaking Root Ceiling."
