Made by LJ van Tuinen in 2012. This part of Leeuwarden was once the old Middle Sea that became new land after the sea silted up. The Van Loonstraat lies on the border of the Old and New land. Water is something that LJ van Tuinen associates with motion. The silting up of the Middle Sea toward new land is also motion, a visible change in the landscape during a timeperiod. The artwork is part of the tunnel, and this was an initiative from the municipally of Leeuwarden to make sure traffic moved better and safer along the city ring. 
This place is also about in motion. Motion is the connection between the location and the theme of the artwork. The blue parts represent the water with shapes like fishes and the green the land with foodsteps. These shapes, about 180.000 give an optic illusion of motion. The legs in the land are an estetic addition to break the whole. The legs walk along the time towards the land and stop at the water, a period that will once come again.
