Acclaimed artist and architect Dale Eldred was known for his installations designed to split sunlight into its color elements, producing luminous fields of energy and intense radiant light.  In Sun Stations, Eldred created a three-part solar sculpture which converts South Florida’s brilliant sunlight into unexpected bursts and flickers of pure color.  Stated Eldred, “my work is about light.  My sculptures are carefully calculated receivers – through refraction, reflection, or diffraction.”
