DeWain Valentine is described as an American minimalist known for his translucent glass sculptures suggestive of machine made objects. This aqua colored glass wall with water cascading to a pool below is located within the Poseidon Court at the Surf and Sand Hotel.

A purist in regard to his use of material and form, the artist is particularly interested in the dissolution of form into shifting illusions of color and light. DeWain finds endless inspiration from the “transparent colored space” of the sky and sea.
