Where the Sky Meets the Earth by Michael Weedman was selected as one of the two winners in a contest for public art to be installed on Centennial Mall in 1987. The contest was created to demonstrate confidence in Nebraska artists and their abilities, restricting entrants to those have resided in the state for at least one year at time of entry. Though neither of the winning sculptures would be installed on Centennial Mall due to controversy over the overall aesthetic of the mall, they would be installed in 1987 at a spot chosen by city officials with the artists’ input within Antelope Park near the bandstand. This sculpture has since been moved to Woods Park at a spot near 33rd Street.
