【描述】
《Monarch》位于凯撒医疗（Kaiser Permanente）位于米慎湾的先进LEED金牌认证医疗办公楼的场地上。这座雕塑参考了帝王蝶及其迁徙习性。雕塑高26英尺，由大约900个激光切割的不锈钢蝴蝶组成。其表面随着一天中光线的变化在高光和阴影之间转换，形成了色调调制的形式。从黄昏到夜晚，雕塑通过映射在其表面的不同颜色灯光进行照明。当接近雕塑时，人们会意识到这个迷人的、闪烁的表面实际上是由数百个个体组成的。这件作品促使人们思考个体与更大社区创建之间的关系。

Cliff Garten创作的巨大不锈钢和LED雕塑《Monarch》以帝王蝶及其迁徙习性为象征，比喻个体如何通过聚集在一起形成更强大的社区。
Description
Monarch is located on the grounds of Kaiser Permanente’s state-of-the-art LEED Gold certified medical office building in Mission Bay. The sculpture references the mating ritual of the Monarch butterfly. Standing 26’ tall and created from approximately 900 laser cut, stainless steel butterflies, the sculpture is a tonally modulated form whose surface changes in highlight and shadow with changing light throughout the day. From dusk to dark the sculpture is illuminated with changing colors mapped to its surface. Upon approaching the sculpture, one realizes that this fascinating, shimmering surface is actually the aggregation of hundreds of individuals. The work gives pause to think of the relationship of the individual to the creation of a larger community.

Monarch, by Kathleen Wheater
October 2016
The monumental stainless steel and LED sculpture Monarch by Cliff Garten envisions the Monarch butterfly and its migration habits as a metaphor for how individuals become stronger by gathering together in communities.
