Health Science Research Facility UVM College of Medicine When the University of Vermont Medical School needed something exciting to bring life and light to the entry of its new Health Science Research Facility, they asked Conant Metal & Light for a proposal. Steve Conant, a UVM alumni, gladly stepped up to design and build this dynamic 17’ X 8’ solid brass illuminated mobile. Suspended thirty feet overhead, this LED illuminated sculpture provides a dramatic focal point, visible from each of four floors of the open atrium. Its dramatic twist was inspired by the double helix of a DNA molecule while it’s LED light source was chosen for its energy efficiency and low maintenance cost.

beautiful, yet functional
pieces of art is really quite amazing. Our building
designs are clearly
enhanced by your efforts.”
