While traveling in Chicago this spring, I came upon this installation of art at the Rockwell Brown Line stop. I didn't travel much on the north side of the Brown Line when I was a Chicago resident, so discovering some public art was a nice surprise.
The panes of glass printed with nature scenes are a serene way to exit or enter the station. The Art in Transit program began in 2004, and has since expanded today to a selection of stops along Chicago Red and Brown Lines. I'm an advocate of public art—it makes me stop what I'm doing, recognize my surroundings and take a moment to think about what I'm seeing (instead of continuing to stare at my tablet) If you enjoy the same experience, check out the Art in Transit website and enjoy some of the public art offerings around the city of Chicago.
