Tridents expressed vertical rhythm and strength. Remnants in the Museum reframe scale and invite attention to detail.


Design Notes

  • Structural patterning
  • Glass and reflectivity
  • Light and shadow across the day

How to Look

Distance What Emerges
Far Overall rhythm and vertical emphasis
Mid Joint patterns, alignment, and spacing
Near Texture, fasteners, and surface wear

Museum Reading

  • Stand back to read overall form.
  • Move closer for texture and joins.
  • Listen to how sound shifts near large elements.

Bottom line: Scale and light can be read — walk slowly and look up.
