Art in the Stations: Renaissance Center

As I got off the People Mover at Renaissance Center, I was lead down a tunnel walkway from the platform and into a colorful tiled space. Home to the General Motors Headquarters, this is the same station you'd be able to use if you lived, worked, and played in the neighborhood. Home to restaurants and shops, the "Ren Cen" is a staple in the Detroit skyline.

"Path Games" by George Woodman features 2,625 ceramic tile modules, silk screened and manufactured in Italy. The vibrant design represents the connectivity of cultures in Detroit, linking together to create multi-colored orientations of continuous pattern. Throughout his 60-year career, Woodman explored color and abstraction in a variety of forms, including landscape, geometric, and patterned, and later pivoting toward figure, sculpture, and architecture. 

Standing strong is "Siberian Ram," a cast-bronze sculpture by Marshall Fredericks with a Pewabic tile backdrop. The green tiles behind Siberian Ram were donated from Stroh's Brewing Company and can also be seen in this unique green color at Cadillac Center.

Fredericks was one of Michigan’s most prolific sculptors, with 29 in total. Known for his sculptures depicting animals and nature, the original Siberian Ram was first completed in 1941 and on display at Frederik Meijer Gardens and Sculpture Park in Grand Rapids. Hosting the largest collection of his work, you can also see "The Boy and the Bear" and "Seven Saints and Sinners" at Meijer Gardens.

The green tiles behind Siberian Ram were donated from Stroh's Brewing Company and can also be seen in this unique green color at Cadillac Center.

Hi all! I love crocheting as a hobby, and I decided that I want to start selling some of the things I've been making. I post what I make on instagram (twca.business) and pinterest (lowkeytee99). So if you're interested or know anyone who is, let me know. Also, if you place an order by September 18th, you'll receive a complimentary gift! Thanks 😊

I have had the privilege to be able to take a pause in life. During this break I've discovered that my subconscious mind has been trained to be a people-pleaser. YIKES!

So, naturally I've been finding ways to put my needs first. Finding the joy in not only self care but in the outside world as well. Photography, art, & writing have become my main outlets.

Join me while I utilize my passions to discover the beauty that life has to offer. After the heartaches come healing. After healing comes a new perspective. This page will be dedicated to my new perspective on life.

My joy is my responsibility to create and maintain! Take a look at this beautiful view. I'm excited to find myself photographing even more beautiful sights like this photo here.

Thanks for reading. :-)

Ride Free on the QLINE and Detroit People Mover in 2024

The QLINE and Detroit People Mover are officially fare-free in 2024!

This is an awesome step for our community and environment- as we encourage more people to walk, bike, and take transit, we will watch both our world and our own lives heal.

There’s power in movement, and my own mental health has never been better since being connected with community, nature, and the stillness of my own breath.

Next up, pay increases for bus drivers and improved transit in Southeast Michigan. 😊

Detroit Downtown Tour, MI

Of course, we also gave Jan’s sister a tour of the Downtown area of Detroit. So, we walked along the river walk, have had a look at Canada, and strolled through the city.
