På en cirkelrund, kunstig ø med granittrapper hele vejen rundt står i midten
en høj stele. Den er sammensat af 12 stenblokke i forskellige granitarter.
I hver af stenene er relieffer af hhv. forsiden og bagsiden af en kvindetorso.
Tolv kvinder i forskellig størrelse og alder har lagt krop til gipsafformningerne,
som disse relieffer er hugget efter. Stenblokkenes to andre sider
har fordybninger med grøn beplantning.
Fra toppen risler vand ned over de blankpolerede kvindekroppe.

Omkring stelen er anbragt en luftig pavillon bestående af fire afsnit,
der hver repræsenterer et af de fire elementer: ild, vand, jord og luft.
En let stålkonstruktion bærer fire baldakiner af blyindfattet, mundblæst,
farvet glas med stiliserede figur- og dyrefremstillinger.
Øen ligger i en kunstig sø på kanten af Amager Fælled, og der er adgang til øen via en bro i corténstål.
Om natten er glasbaldakinerne og granitstelen belyst nedefra, sidstnævnte fra under vandet,
så der opstår en flimrende effekt.

Island: Diameter 50 m granite pedestal height 12 m
Glass surface's area 250 square meters

In a circular, artificial island with granite stairs all the way around
is in the middle a high stele.
It is composed of 12 blocks of stone in different types of granite.
In each of the stones are reliefs, respectively. the front and the back
of a woman's torso. Casts in plaster from twelve women of different size and age
which these reliefs are carved after.
Stone blocks two other sides have indentations with green vegetation on.
From the top trickling water over the polished female bodies.

Around stele placed an airy pavilion consisting of four sections,
each representing one of the four elements: fire, water, earth and air.
A lightweight steel frame carries four canopies of lead mounted,
hand-blown stained glass with stylized figure and animal representations.

The island is located in an artificial lake on the edge of Amager Fælled,
an access to the island by a bridge in corten steel.
At night glasbaldakinerne and granitstelen lit from below, under water,
so creating a shimmering effect.
