Light bulb painted for West Orange Energy Diet, 2007
New York Times Article
Shawn Whelan, 25, painted windmills, hot air balloons and a hydroelectric dam on his bulb, titled “The Green Light,” which is on display outside the South Mountain arena complex. Mr. Whelan named it not for its Gatsby-esque suggestion of a distant goal, but because to him it represents clean energy as well as the push to get it.
“I don’t know if this art project would start a revolution or anything,” Mr. Whelan said. “But it can plant an idea in someone’s head.”
