Largo Lens

Largo Metro Center
Lake Arbor, Maryland

Commissioned by Washington Metropolitan Area Transit

Largo Lens is a 33’ high free-standing, light-sensitive sculpture comprised of prismatic, holographic glass facets configured onto a circular “lens’ framework that interacts with sunlight to reflect a dazzling spectrum of color.

Largo Lens is one of a continuing series of chromatic sculptures that interact with and are animated by sunlight to form a visual conversation with the sun; it faces the southern meridian of the sun to capture and disperse the sun's refractions. The geometric rhythmic elements suggest the harmony of music and the symbolism of enlightenment.
