For these ten enormous arches, each 23 ft. high X 16 ft. wide, Bynum made photographic enlargements of painting details. They are seen by viewers walking, driving, and from trains that run along the banks of the Hudson River between Grand Central Station in Manhattan and communities in the Hudson River Valley.

This illuminated painting, 30 ft. wide x 12 ft. high on eight layers of glass, greets visitors to the new Institute for Science & Technology at Chapman University in Orange, California near Los Angeles. Using experimental fabrication and lighting technologies, the two-sided, semi-translucent sculptural painting is astronomically synced to the sunrise and rotates through five different light settings. The 1,000+ daily viewers are brought into an intimate relationship with the biological structure of our oneness and the interconnectedness of all life.
