Brilliance

Brilliance is a site-specific public art installation by Joe O'Connell and Blessing Hancock. The artists created a family of six sculptures surrounded by text generated by members of the Palo Alto community in languages reflecting the community's cultural diversity. Text on each work addresses physical, spiritual, artistic and intellectual growth. Each sculpture features an interior LED light that is touch-sensitive, allowing viewers to change the lighting colors and shadow on the trees and walkways at night.
