Mary Temple’s “West Wall, East Light, Morning” (2011) at Neck Road (Q) creates a soft canopy of light and shadow subtly imprinted on the station walls in hand painted ceramic mosaic. The slow reveal of trees bathed in perpetual morning light is intended to be discovered over time, on repeated viewing and at different times of day. Catch more of Temple’s trompe l’oeil light installations in “Double Sun” on the archway of Williamsburg’s McCarren Park Pool, on #NationalSwimmingPoolDay! Double Sun, a project commissioned by Department of Cultural Affairs' Percent for Art Program and the Department of Parks & Recreation, was honored with a Public Design Commission Excellence in Design Award for outstanding public art.  

Congratulations to Mary Temple on receiving NYC Design Commission's Excellence in Design Award for her McCarren Park Pool project  "Double Sun", a project of the Department of Cultural Affairs’ Percent for Art Program. Pictured here, a detail from Mary Temple’s earlier ceramic mosaic “West Wall, East Light, Morning” (2011) at the Neck Road Station (Q) in Brooklyn.

In honor of #WorldAidsDay, Day With(out) Art.
