Handmade clear and dichroic glass and stainless steel wire

Inspired by the Spokane River and the building’s architecture, Cascade is comprised of thousands of hand-formed glass water drops that flow through the entire north side of the Biomedical Sciences Building, symbolically linking with the actual water that moves through the healing garden at the building’s west end.
