Madison’s first public art installation, Biome, lights up the town.
Madison's new light sculpture at the intersection of highways 40 and 75 is an homage to the tallgrass prairie ecosystem. Designed and created by Webster City, Iowa landscape architect Tim Adams, the spiral weathered steel structure is meant to be walked through to experience the actual size of the plants that once dominated the local landscape.
