Together with the dazzles dangled on Bertoia's metal sculpture and the flicker of grace reflected on the water in the perimeter cavity, aFloat will enhance the Chapel as a place of worship for the diverse MIT community. The essence of ripples without liquid has inspired this work. A single touch releases an array of diminishing flickers – a local impact on the greater whole. . . a moment of chaos between points of light before serenity returns with a calm ripple.Funded in part by a grant from the Council for the Arts at MIT.
