The Greeting to the Sun by Night - Zadar - Croatia

"Greeting to the Sun" - Installation by Nikola Bašić (Architect) - Istarska Obala - Zadar / Zara - Dalmatia - Hrvatska / Croatia - Jadransko More / Adria / Adriatic Sea - www.tzzadar.hr/

 

The Greeting to the Sun consists of three hundred multi-layered glass plates placed on the same level with the stone-paved waterfront in the shape of a 22-meter diameter circle. Under the glass conduction plates there are photo-voltage solar modules through which symbolic communication with nature is made, with the aim to communicate with light, just like the Sea Organs nearby do with sound.
