- Standing 30’ tall and 12’ wide, Beacon Bloom is situated in the center of a roundabout in Carmel, IN “signaling the presence of the roundabout with a welcoming expression of hope and growth,” says artist Arlon Bayliss.
- Arlon approached bo-mar early in his process with conceptual drawings. bo-mar’s fabricators and engineers worked directly with the artist to develop his concept into a buildable piece of art with realistic scheduling and budgetary information.
- Florets were created and preassembled into clusters in bo-mar’s shop, complete with electrical wiring. The dichroic glass was cut on our waterjet to maximize yield and installed into each floret by bo-mar’s talented assembly department before being crated for transport to site. Once onsite, bo-mar’s field team finished out the project with full installation of the sculpture.
- Each metal stem is comprised of 16 clusters, each containing 16 florets. Each floret contains an LED light covered in dichroic glass, subtly changing the color of each white LED.
