Aufgestellt hat sie der Künstler Dennis Josef Meseg. Mit der Installation "Shattered Souls… in a Sea of Silence" möchte er auf die zahlreichen Missbrauchsvorwürfe gegen die katholische Kirche hinweisen.
Die Figuren symbolisieren den stillen Ruf missbrauchter Kinder nach Gerechtigkeit: "Durch meine Installation sollen sich sowohl die Missbrauchsopfer, als auch die Täter gesehen fühlen", sagt Künstler Meseg dem WDR. 
Jede einzelne Schaufensterpuppe ist mit farbigem Flatterband umwickelt. Die Farbe Weiß soll für die Unschuld der Kinder stehen.
