The red light is a traffic sign, telling us when we should stop and when we can go. At the moment, it has stopped us in our tracks in front of the enormous Mormon Temple. The light becomes a symbol that can go beyond its traffic function. Given this context, the stoplight can be symbolically asking us to stop to ponder the church’s enormous political and economic impact on this city and state. Some might even see it as an expression of secular protest. Ultimately I leave the message to the eye of the beholder.
