The location of this artwork is at the apex of many vantage points – within the building and to the city beyond. The artist was inspired by the abundant natural light and scale of the space. The sculpture of fused glass and native Madrone serves as a gathering beacon, using the language of directional signs and carved gothic windows. The artwork “ushers convention goers from near and far to sit and ponder what’s around them.” According to the artist: “Getting them there is the first step, enticing them to linger is the second. The piece is an invitation to do just that.”
