Lux Nova

Lux Nova, a 40-foot wind tower at Regent College, a non-denominational graduate school of theology at the University of British Columbia, is a new stained glass marvel with solar cells. Woven into its 144-square-feet of photovoltaic glass is The Lord’s Prayer in Aramaic. Energy produced by this decorative “luminous column” lights the surrounding park. Sarah Hall, familiar to Record readers as a stained-glass artist, designed this art work that produces its own light.
