JOURNEYS 2004

30’ H x 30’ W x18” D    Railing: 500’L

New York Avenue Metro Station, Downtown, Washington, D.C.

Leaf: Aluminum / Light   Railing: Steel

Journeys is a collaboration with Dolores Kendrick, Poet Laureate of Washington D.C. Her poetry enriches the pedestrian experience. The integration of words into the artwork contributes to the multi-layered, richly textured public space. The leaf is illuminated from within at night, providing a beacon of light at the entrance to the station.

Commissioned by Washington Metro Area Transit Authority, (WMATA), Arts in Transit Program, Washington DC.
