Brooklyn, NY
(W)HERE
Stainless steel inlays, laminated windscreen glass, pasenger shelter columns
Jackie Chang blends text and images in her station art by incorporating the words "HERE" and "WHERE". HERE signifies one's current location and WHERE is an abstract term, belonging both to the past and to the future. Chang said in an interview, "…the City is looking to the future, but it is also taking the past with it." The word WHERE, with HERE embedded within it, is printed in the art glass windscreens for each passenger shelter, above the artist's digitally created images of foliage existing in a bright blue sky.
