    Raining Reeds—the result of a collaboration between Metalab and Shane Allbritton and Norman Lee of RE:site—is an installation for the Jacksonville Mayo Clinic. Inspired by the reed-filled wetlands of Florida's eastern coast, as well as the afternoon rainstorms that often happen in the area. The duality of the work is shown through multiple viewpoints: when seen from below, the randomly spaced flamed-copper sleeves appear to be raindrops, while viewers on the second floor are instead looking through an array of reeds in a verdant wetland.
