Sofia Lacin and Hennessy Christophel recently completed Same Sun, the hand-painted, abstract mural and kinetic shadow installation on a five-story, 14,000-sf water tank in California. One third of the five month project was hand-held brushwork, done solely by the two artists. The artwork has a unique kinetic element whereby the installation interacts with the sun through shadows that move across the tank and complete the phrase, The Sun Shines Upon Us All, creating an interesting connection between time and place.

Public art at its finest. The great thing about this piece is that it’s a different shade of beautiful every day.

Just saw the finished tank in-person on Saturday – it is incredible! Pictures cannot do justice to how huge it is and how beautifully they’ve transformed a water tower.
