| Signage: | The fountain artwork Paradise, created by mosaic artist Tebogo Ramokone, harmonizes with the mosaic-clad pillars in the court foyer and the intricate mosaic façade at the entrance. Fountains carry deep symbolic meaning across cultures—often representing life, purity, and divine nourishment. In the context of the Constitutional Court, this fountain may evoke themes of renewal, transformation, and the pursuit of knowledge. Moreover, depending on cultural perspectives, fountains can also symbolize abundance, fertility, power, and prosperity. |
