Artwork description

Commissioned by the Westcliff corporation, owner of Les Promenades de la Cathédrale, the artist created an illuminated glass mural reproducing the form of a Gothic ogive window. The moving light displays on either side imitate the movement of the light in a cathedral as one moves through the nave.
