The Why? Group is one of several sculptures installed in the
Living Memorial Sculpture Garden. The garden was created by volunteers under the guidance of Ric deLugo as a memorial to war dead. Land for the garden was donated by the United States Forest Service. Funding for the sculpture was raised by donation.
From the Smithsonian description:
Abstract figure group installation. A lone figure stands atop a tall concrete pyramid. The figure reaches skyward with both hands. On the ground in front of the pedestal are two figures. One is falling backwards, as if hurt; the other is running forward to catch the falling figure. The installation stands on a concrete base which is paved with stones.
