Green Flash (2002) 

Malcolm Jones

DESCRIPTION:  solid cast acrylic archway supported by two concrete pillars, and including a bronze plaque describing the sunset color phenomenon

The following text from the sculpture's information plaque provides details and advice for experiencing the "green flash" visual phenomenon:"The real sunset phenomena called the "green flash"is often cited but seldom seen.It can manifest itself to a one-time visitorwhile eluding local residents for decades.In this way, viewers become divided into the visual "haves" and "have nots".  "
"To increase your chances for becoming a "have",start watching a few moments before sunset on clear, cloudless days when waves are smalland the Sun remains yellow almost to the horizon."
LOCATION:  3171 Ocean Front Walk, Mission Beach,  San Diego, California, USA
