'Cascade' by Richard Hansen, 2000. Sitting in plaza between Performing Arts Center and Atwood Memorial Center, Cascade is inspired by the topography of the St. Cloud State campus as it engages the Mississippi River. The vertical granite forms with lively carved edges serve as abstracted slices through the campus as it meets the river. The forms also represent the sculptural presence throughout the seasons ' with cascading water during the warm season and with the memory of water during the winter months.
