For about an hour in the afternoon, during March and September this grand, 2000 year old staircase in Trajans's Markets is flooded with a spectacular, ever changing solar spectrum painting. Two giant prisms continuously mix the morphing colors and shapes as they project into the dark space, raking across the textures of the ancient Roman bricks. By 3:00 PM the Earth has turned enough to move the shaft of light off the stairs - and the colors fade away. A life changing event for those who were there at just the right - serendipitous -moment.
