    Description: 
    Two 50-foot glass block towers are at each end of a shallow reflecting pool. The towers project video images from a broad spectrum of Chicago citizens on LED screens. Every few minutes the person's lips pucker and water flows from spouts that gives the illusion of water spouting from their mouths. Then water rushed down from the top of the tower and washes away the face.
