The artwork inspired by Monarch butterflies was installed earlier this month; Kaleidoscope Park will hold a grand opening on Oct. 5in Frisco will open to the public as a new green space for people to relax, work, and play. One of the main attractions is a large hanging sculpture at the north end of the six acres of green space which pays homage to butterflies.The 3,423-pound sculpture is made up of 791,788 knots tied by hand and by loom and hangs high in the sky.

“This area is on the path of the Monarch Butterfly migration, so we'll have Milkweed planted beneath it," explained Jackson.“It's meaningful to me to be asked to help sculpt this new public park for North Texas.

The visually appealing sculpture will be lit up at night but changes colors during the day depending on the sun.We were out here one day at 9 a.m. and it looks really pink, and then came out a couple hours later and it looks really yellow. So it'll change and then at night it'll light will have lighting on it and lighting sequences will change and so nobody will get bored with this piece of art and kind," said Jackson.

There's a little something for everyone, including walkways, playground, and WI-FI for people to work outside.
