Tom Fruin is a Brooklyn-based artist who tends to work in large, kaleidoscopically-colored plexiglass. His latest work is at the western edge of his home bourough, and is based on one of the iconic elements of New York buildings, the roof water-tower. During the day it's illuminated with natural light while at night there's a computer-controlled internal lighting system.
This is also a fantastic example of how photography can make or break an installation. Compare the impact of the first picture with that of the second.
