WORK COMMENCES ON OUR NEW PUBLIC ART INSTALLATION!!

started work on Monday on the first of three public art installations at Duke Energy Plaza to celebrate the city and company’s mission.

Passersby outside Duke Energy Plaza’s main entrance on South Tryon Street will be greeted with two illuminated sculptures by Charlotte-based artist Ivan Toth Depeña. The pieces are inspired by photons, the smallest particles of light not visible to the human eye. Behind the sculptures – the larger of which is nearly 40 feet tall – the building’s façade will feature a six-story panel with a backlit, silhouetted version of Depeña’s sculptural "photon-like" forms, creating a striking backdrop to the towering works of art.

“Our new headquarters will add to Charlotte’s stunning skyline and be a place to connect, innovate and inspire as part of the city’s vibrant uptown community," said Donna Council, senior vice president of Administrative Services. “We wanted to share Duke Energy’s core values and clean energy mission in visually dynamic ways.”

The company worked with to find the artists. Work on the Brooklyn mural and interior installation by are set to begin this summer.
