Description
Symphony of Cells, a crystal, and stained glass mosaic, is built into a water fountain at the main entrance of the Chicago Center for Arts and Technology (ChiCAT). Working with a group of teen artists, Andy Bellomo and Sonja Henderson created a piece that depicts ‘cells’ created from crystals, glass, and stones. The cells suggest energy and motion, and the piece explores the metaphysical connections between matter, space, and humanity. The cells are interrelated and illustrate the connections between the youth at ChiCAT, the surrounding community, and the broader world. The project was completed in 2017.
