In this work, I have combined what I feel to be the most important aspects of a public artwork.
The first is reference to the site, or location and the second is the function of the place it is sited in.
The lighthouse proposal incorporates the Harbor location as well as considering the function of the police station through the incorporation of the helix configuration.
This work underscores of one of most important developments found in police work today- the strengthened powers of investigation and diminished possibility of error in the delicate process of determining guilt or innocence.
