Description: Freestanding Chinese moon gate, representing the corridor traversed between Taiwan & the 626 of LA. The moon gate, a circle rising up out of the earth, is a traditional Chinese landscape element that serves as a portal between connected spaces. By stepping over the threshold, travelers symbolically transit the barrier separating one world from the next. The complete circle celebrates the family unit, the generational cycle of time, and a conduit for reunion.
