This film documents the many great achievements Maya Lin has made since her major piece of art back in 1980. "Maya" means courage and she uses every ounce of courage and determination in each of works. Her first major art piece was the Vietnam Memorial, she was 21 at the time and submitted her art piece into a competition of which she was later chosen as the winner. In each of her works she places an emphasis on contrasting her work with the environment surrounding the location. This in effect makes it more inviting and not as stark. Sometimes even before even seeing the location she might take several months to learn in detail about the monuments meaning.
