Walk or drive in downtown San Diego past the corner of Broadway and Front Street, and you might glimpse rainbow colors splashed every which way!
For more than thirty years, a very cool sculpture has added surprising color and life to the public plaza at the entrance to 101 West Broadway. Titled Light, Rock and Water, the prism wall and accompanying elements were created by renowned New York artist Charles Ross. According to a small plaque, Ross has described his work as “cinematic in nature, seen as a sequence of spectrum images, some muted, some bright, but not all visible from any single vantage.”
I recently approached this public artwork and walked slowly all around it.
Here are some photos…

Just magic. I love how much you discovered, by walking all around, all around, and really using your eyes to see what is there. You must have been absolutely enchanted by the prisms reflected at your feet…

Of course. The power of working with nature. If ever you are in Toronto, visit the Aga Khan Museum. It’s architecture is as simple as this, as wise in its way of working with nature.
