Accompanying textUsing an old place name for a part of the coastline of the island of Hawai`i where fresh water met the ocean, this work was created in remembrance of the historic YMCA swimming pool that once occupied this space. This glass sculpture incorporates a dual layered image, symbolizing the merging of the pool water with an overlay of coastal ocean water.
