The statue is inspired by the natural forces of the Steinhuder Meer and symbolizes the wind that hits the body and its path. It was erected in the water on the promenade in 2008 by Steinhuder Meer Tourismus GmbH with funding from the Stiftung Niedersächsischer Volksbanken und Raiffeisenbanken.
It was damaged by severe weather conditions and has stood in the Kunstscheune since 2016
