Flowering as the face of time
Artist Michael Brown created a group of seven towering, copper Sunflowers, which are mounted on stalks and appear to burst from the ground of the platform. The face of each sunflower is a functional clock, highlighted by neon lighting. Each sunflower has independent daylight sensors, which cause the individual sunflowers to light up at different times as dusk approaches. The sculptures are at once surreal and practical � a perfect link between the central business district and the nearby Dallas Arts District. Bursting sunflowers and passing time also reflect the theme of the Downtown Transitway Mall, "City in Motion."
