Artist Marco Mahler's sculpture, suspended from the fourth floor to the first floor atrium of the 学习共享, is a visual representation of the building's interactive nature. It consists of two parts that visually correspond with each other and complete each other. Each part measures 25 feet in height and 16 feet in diameter.

Mahler designed the sculpture with interconnected balance structures throughout; the equilibrium of each part depends on the counterparts that are linked to it. Just like the 空间 in the 学习共享, it can be freely interpreted and reinterpreted.
