The artwork is a surrealistic chandelier that pays homage to the art of forensic science. Held together by an anarchic armature of steel rods and laboratory clamps, the artwork contains hundreds of glass beakers, flasks, test tubes, pipettes and other elegant tools of the forensics trade. Approximately 10 feet in diameter and 18 feet high, the piece is suspended from the lobby ceiling by forty posts at the base of which are backlit Petri dishes holding graphic references to the recurrent theme of scientific investigation and forensics work.
