The glass radiates light, warmth and sunlight (at night some of the works are lit) and allows the viewer a spectacular visual treat.  Just inside the entrance, “The Sun” greets visitors with orange, yellow and red tendrils exploding from a core.

Another display consists of floating geometric-like figures that give an otherworldly feel as the glass shifts with the water’s flow.

Floating geometric figures

Nestled in an area with numerous cacti, the “Float Boat” appears to have giant marbles in array of colors on display in a rowboat.

Like giant marbles

With nearly every new curve in a path, the installations amaze and dazzle.  My recommendation – if you can get to Phoenix before the end of May – GO!
