The work is inspired by a Gaelic prayer book and key in the university's museum collections. Maclean has adapted a former Free Church hand-held collection box by replacing the sloping wooden top panels with clear resin. Inside is a facsimile of a Gaelic prayer book and key. On the reverse is a facsimile museum object movement label.
