The main material used in the plaque is wood, a symbol of diaspora that represents people dispersing like seeds, settling in the soil of another society and putting down roots to grow and develop. The twelve dandelion seeds represent native trees from locations around the world, and making them into a single plaque imparts the meaning of migration, taking root, and convergence and integration between cultures.

The dandelion seeds that run through the twelve wooden boards embody the determination to overcome social conventions and put down strong roots. To express the dynamism in the relentless challenge and ever-changing nature of diaspora, we plan to produce the top part of the rectangular boards in a different shape every year by abstracting the diaspora contained in the winning novel, while also changing the direction of the dandelion seeds each year to express the concept of being carried and spread by the wind.
