The Lens Structure is a proposed public artwork for the Information and Technology building at Baruch College. The delicate, suspended cable structure spherical in form creates a luminous sculptural element that captures the sky and the shifting shadows of the building’s skylight structure. The lens sculpture is proposed to be made of various laminated dichroic glass panels connected to the tensile steel cable support system.
