Installed
This ceiling installation in the Midvale Senior Center is made of over 1,000 individual strands of large-scale ball chain. The strands are arranged in five tiered concentric rings. As seen from below, it appears like a view of the nearby Bingham Copper Mine. Each tier is formed in a different color (brass, aluminum, copper, and steel), representing the different metals extracted from the mine.
