Overview

A suspended sculpture that spans two floors, Color Cascade’s palette corresponds with Murch Elementary school’s way-finding color scheme: yellow orange denoting the first floor and blue-green on the second. The circular components of the sculpture take inspiration from the surrounding architecture and light fixtures. The sculpture provides multiple viewing angles, encompassing both order and chaos, 2D and 3D perspectives.
