The sculpture takes Qingdao as the fuse of the May 4th Movement, which fully shows the historical footprint of the island city and has a profound meaning of destroying people. The sculpture takes the steel plate as the main body, supplemented by the outer coating of Lux, and the shape adopts the spiral steel plate structure combination. With the technique of washing, simple lines and heavy texture, it shows the image of "strong wind" rising into the air, giving people a shock of "force"
The main sculpture in the square, Wind in May, is 30 meters high and 27 meters in diameter. The spiral steel structure is adopted, and the arrangement and combination of simple washing modeling elements are in the shape of "wind", which fully embodies the patriotic tone of anti-imperialism and anti-feudalism in the May Fourth Movement and the national strength of publicity and soaring.
