PIER

52" high x 96" wide x 10" deep

This luminous 3-D wall sculpture is made with plexiglas, Baltic birch, steel, acrylic, fluorescent and phosphorescent paints, and over 100 feet of luminous glass tubing filled with Neon, Krypton, and Argon gas pumped with mercury. The piece has three modes:

PIER A. The Ocean by Day
(Neon and Blacklight On; Room Lights On or Off)

The "Sun-filled" ocean water glows with backlighting from tubes pumped with Argon gas with mercury. The jellyfish pulses with glowing beads of Krypton gas light. The octopus undulates with beads of glowing Neon gas produced by a special electronic transformer. The 5 tubes of light-green glowing sea grasses are made from rare Uranium glass tubing filled with Argon gas with mercury.

PIER B. The Ocean by Night
(Room Lights and Neon Off; Blacklight On)

The night ocean is filled with bioluminescence-luminescence, here produced by a wash of blacklight over fluorescent and phosphorescent paints. The Uranium glass tubing of the sea grasses also fluoresces under Blacklight.

PIER C. The Ocean Deep
(All Lights Off!)

Deep sea life bioluminescent images here are produced by phosphorescent afterglow!
