"A sculpture inspired by the poem 'Nae Day Sae Dark' (No Day So Dark) by Perth poet William Soutar. It consists of two bronze figures of men, representing happiness and misery, leaning on a five metre horizontal steel ring. Soutar's poem is engraved inside the ring of the sculpture. As with Soutar’s poem of the same name, the sculpture reminds us that however overpowering the dark, a glint of light will appear and even in the deepest despair, hope will always prevail."
