Description by the artist:
The touchstone of my approach to the lobby was based on some comments made by Judge Marsh: the artwork in the lobby should act as an invitation and have a calming aspect to the viewer. The other important consideration was to do work that complimented and enhanced the architecture. In reflection, the result is contained in the Japanese word wa, meaning harmony.
Standing at the entrance, looking towards the far wall, is a work entitled: "Ocean of Thought." Large cascading waves descend in a manner similar to natural waves, always the same, always different.
