© 2005 The Places, Light Venturi by Terry Frost

Materials: black granite, polycarbonate tubes illuminated with LED lights

Artwork Description: “This design is conceived around the concept of using the natural flow of water and directing it through various situations to create effects for all seasons. The water is therefore a significant component of the sculpture rather than being a backdrop . . . the sculpture also contains LED Lighting, which joins the upper and lower pools, and interacts with the waterfall. The lights will read as rods of pure light and will be activated by motion sensors at the edge of the pool . . .” (Terry Frost, June 23, 2004)
