There is an internal gold light that
will activate the “sands” movement
after dark.
The light will slowly drop like grains
of sand through an hourglass. The
light cycle may be two minutes.
Hourglass shape created from bands
of mirror-polished stainless steel
rolled into shape.

The 9’ tall sculpture is made of rolled polished stainless steel
configured into an hourglass-like shape to stand at the entrance
of Sandy 121. The sculptures uses both the shape of the metal
and the negative space to create a uniquely substantial yet fluid
feeling sculpture with great 360-degree views.
The reflective material will pick up ambient lights and colors
throughout the day and seasons. At night, an internal light will
glow golden and move slowly through the attractive shape.
For us, this sculpture is a reminder of the many thoughts,
decisions, and experiences had in any given day. While it is too
much to live in a state of complete awareness, it is nice to
sometimes slice time into little moments to appreciate the small
things. Further, the striations in the design are reminiscent of the
corrugated water tank or tower that could have been seen in the
Coppell farmlands historically –and is seen today in Old Town.
