"Located in the center of campus, "Sown" is a metaphor for human asperations and endeavors. It features a focal seating area and customized 'acorn' lighting fixtures that appear to be growing on the quad." From Moorhead Magazine
Artists Gail Simpson and Aristotle Georgiades, of Actual Size Artworks, worked with landscape architect Dean Proctor to create a gathering space for MSUM students and Moorhead residents. The setting is the grassy and tree filled quad, so they used larger than life realistic pine cones and acorns to create the space and provide seating.
