Original concept for the Rainbow Bridge
Construction drawing
Construction begins
The glass goes in
Toughened laminated glass was used along with Douglas Fir
The light illuminates the wood
The monochrome background is lit up with colour
Looking through the glass gives the viewer a different perspective on the natural world
Seasons, time of day and light all change the mood of the space
As light fades the light is focused through the glass onto the canvas of wood
The wood performs the role of canvas for the light to shine its message
Discs of glass by the artist create a series of animal souls which reflect life
The animal souls are remembered spaces for lost friends
The glass shines different at different times of the day
The completed bridge provides a space over water that is reflective
