Universal City

2006 225th Street (2, 5) New York City Transit

In his portrayal of cityscapes with vast colorful skies full of energy and motion, Nicky Enright's faceted glass windows are a tribute to New York. Enright created dramatic views with oversized skies, minimizing the size of buildings and city. Playing with the space and direction, Enright created fragmented views, contracting the angles of the subway. The scene shows a calm city under heavens filled with constellations, shooting stars, planets, moons and vibrant sunsets. Through the artwork, Enright encourages commuters to contemplate, if only for a moment, the mystery and excitement of the city and its place in the universe.
