The southwest panel connects the visual symbol of wind with the idea of conversation between people. Dobberfuhl says that in the panel we see that "words travel on the patterns of the wind." We form these patterns through speech, and communication is a critical component of the human experience. Here the mosaic pieces are in soft pastel colors representing the idea that the wind may be invisible but the effects are still felt in many ways, just as spoken words are. The panels range in size from 10x22 to 10x28 feet.
