Overview

Six fused glass panels that are backlit and installed in the lobby of an office building. Each panel measures 24 x 24 inches.

Goals

The design of the panels incorporates patterns that are inspired by the downtown location.

Process

The project was commissioned by president of the company who is also a leading local art philanthropist. He has a focus on showcasing regional artist’s work along with national artists in his developments. With this project I collaborated with him, an architect, and a lighting designer to make the artwork an integral feature of the lobby.
