Description:
Located at the corner of Highway 111 and Jackson Street in Indio, the iconic Oculus Sol (commissioned in 2012 by the city and created by artist Buster Simpson) rises as a 20-foot-high painted steel structure with a 30-foot diameter, where its sweeping trusses draw inspiration from palm fronds and desert shelters. The piece transforms at night into a glowing focal point for the desert landscape, symbolizing both the agricultural past and recreational spirit of the Coachella Valley.
