Sequence/Consequence

Description: This neon sculpture is twisted into the form of a double helix and sits just below the sidewalk’s surface. If you look down through transparent hatch cover, the animated light artwork appears to spiral downward into the ground.

The double helix is a befitting symbol for the cluster of biotech and medical research centers in the nearby South Lake Union neighborhood. The artists designed the artwork so that mirrors would “skew the perceptions of depth and size, creating a seemingly endless field of light.

Location: McGraw Square, Westlake Avenue & Stewart Street
