Maya Lin’s Floating Landscapes at UT | Texas News

Maya Lin’s monumental new art installation, “Floating Landscapes,” is set to debut on UT Austin’s campus in 2027 — a 3,600-square-foot concrete sculpture inspired by Texas skies and ecology, glowing with constellation lights from the day UT was founded. Designed for gathering, it blends architecture, nature, and history, funded by alum Peyton Yates and built with collaborators like the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center. Mark your calendars: April 9, 2027, when this landmark piece transforms the meadow into a living tribute to place, time, and wonder.
