The picture above is taken from the Crown Fountain at Millennium park in Chicago. The structure is composed of 2 glass brick structures containing LEDs which create the image of a human face that rises 50 feet high. The artist was to be chosen by means of a design competition and the decision was made to commission Jaume Plensa, who is from Barcelona. He's been creating public commissions in Europe and Asia since the 1980s, although this was the first one he's done in the U.S.

Plensa is also known to incorporate light sources into his work as well as including aspect of dualism, which is seen here with the addition of 2 structures. When asked about what he thinks about public projects, he responded, "It's not just a geographic area, but a place where people do something just by passing through or relaxing or eating. Public spaces are an expansion of your body, your home. They are another circle."
