Larry Kirland's 'Pensacola Pendants'

Installation wrapped on Larry Kirkland’s design for the newly renovated Federal Courthouse in Pensacola, Florida just a couple of weeks ago. As visitors enter the courthouse they will be greeted by two identical 9’ - 6” x 4’ - 7” x 4’ - 7” hanging, sculptural, pendant lights that illuminate from within in the evening.

Through out the day as the sun shifts and catches the laminated, glass panels from different angles their stunning, organic blue patterns are showcased. The mirror polished, stainless steel framework reflect the blue, glass panels and the surrounding environment.

When viewed from below the nestled star formation is revealed. The form implies the United States of America’s official flag as well as the armed forces that are such a historical and important presence in the Pensacola region.
