Michele Oka Doner’s "Radiant Site" (1991) at 34 St-Herald Sq (B,D,F,M,N,R,Q,W) station fills a rectilinear passage with golden light. The floor-to-ceiling mural is comprised of 11,000 ceramic tiles made by the artist using a century-old foot-press at Pewabic, one of the oldest continually operating potteries in the country. Their slightly irregular shapes and uneven surfaces were hand-glazed, varying the recipe in tiny increments to achieve the desired luminosity. The midsection of the mural is the brightest, as the copper-toned glazed tiles grow darker and reflect less light along the top and bottom of the passageway, resulting in a gently glowing surface. Doner says that she considers not only the physical and chemical properties of the materials she will use but also "their psychic and cosmic qualities.

"ROSA"

Rast

At 14 self-taught French artist Rast moved from drawing in his notebooks to tagging. Fast forward another 14 years and Rast abandoned lettering to paint textured portraits inspired by the faces of the world. In 2022 real estate developer / art curator Marty Kotis invited Rast to paint his first work in the United States as part of Greensboro, North Carolina's unlikely role on the leading edge in transformation of urban space to outdoor gallery. This composition on the back of Westover Gallery of Shops III, includes several motorized pinwheels and circular floral components capable of being set in motion.

Where is Mr BearBones?

[mtaartsdesign]

In Jason Middlebrook’s "Brooklyn Seeds" (2011) at Av U (B,Q) station, a larger-than-life garden of wildflowers ascends the stairway wall leading from street to platform. The glass mosaic depicts local wildflowers that grow in unlikely places, through cracks in the sidewalk, alleys, and walls, exploring the intersection of the human-made and natural. These flowers, often weeds, include such local specimens as spotted knapweed, burdock, golden rod, aster, milkweed, and daises. Above the plants are airborne seed pods floating away to germinate, on a journey of their own.

Saturday in Midtown

Happy Saturday!

I left my apartment around noon to return a library book and run a few errands. I was so glad it didn’t end up raining so I could enjoy a lovely afternoon in Midtown!

DOGFISH HEAD MIAMI

Sebastian Coolidge

In early 2020 Delaware's Dogfish Head declared their love for the Wynwood neighborhood of Miami and opened a new brewery in the heart of the arts district. Looking for an artist to bring vibrant colors to the site Dogfish Head turned to prolific St Pete artist Sebastian Coolidge. Dogfish says "When we saw the work of Sebastian Coolidge, we instantly knew he would bring an off-centered approach to the party!" Coolidge did not disappoint....but unfortunately, while Dogfish Head continues strong in Rehoboth Beach, tough times led to the closing of the Wynwood location in 2022.
