Despite the sculpture's sometimes being referred to as 'Golden Ratio,' it is not proportioned according to the golden ratio, and the sculptor does not call it that: the height of each stack of stones, beginning from either end and moving toward the center, is the beginning of the Fibonacci sequence: 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8. His sculpture Ascend in Sri Lanka, also in his Rhythms of Life series, is similarly constructed, with heights 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, but no descending side.
