The sculpture is a compliment to its nearby companion "The Force of Nature" (WMFTHQ), personified by a nude woman, however, the man is missing his plaque, therefore there is no explanation apparent as to his purpose or cause.

This sculpture is of a man, approximately 50cm tall, poking himself with an extremely and unnaturally long finger, that stretches in a circle around him. All in silver. The sculpture is located on an equally complex, silver framework. As the women represents "mother nature", ready to dispel the hubristic works of man, it is possible that this sculpture represents the works of man. A man who builds things, which are then to be destroyed by a woman, ummm.

This entire area is a tourist/local recreation area, filled with interesting things, and a few waymarks.
