Overview

This dynamic 16’H x 18.5’W Blacklit Dichroic Glass sculpture is founded in the location of the building itself, where three neighborhoods of Dallas—Uptown, Victory Park and Downtown merge. The Class AA Office Tower’s monumental artwork consists of interlocking forms that highlight the interconnection of the community. The backlit glass mesmerizes visitors with its ever changing colors.
