Happiness on South Broadway
Broadway Boulevard Public Art Project

Sometimes life seems to be going pretty great and the next moment it's not at all. Sometimes you can be standing there in the dark not knowing what comes next, and then you see the light and it's beautiful, but after a while it too will inevitably glitch out. Sometimes it helps to know that those glitches are an unavoidable part of life. If things didn't glitch out from time to time– the good parts wouldn't be as good. Sometimes all we can do is laugh.
The word HAPPINESS in blue is illuminated on an orange sign.
After a few minutes the word turns off and the sign remains completely dark for a minute. Then the letters HA begin to flash on and off several times in a gesture of laughter.....HA HA HA HA HA. After the laughter, the entire word lights up again expressing HAPPINESS on South Broadway.
