Bronx Seasons Everchanging
2018
174-175 Sts (B, D)
New York City Transit
For the 174-175 St station, Roy Secord created large-scale abstract paintings that are rooted in mindfulness, geometry and the balance between simplicity and complexity. The artwork is inspired by Secord’s own walking meditations in nature taken throughout the year. The piece, "Bronx Seasons Everchanging," captures the color atmospheres of annual cycles of spring, summer, fall, and winter, as well as their transitions.
Fabricated in glass mosaic and glazed tile by Miotto Mosaic Art Studios, the piece uses the language of geometry and color block pixilation to express rich interplays of pigment and to display formal elements of design. The combination of these components creates a vibrantly spirited, yet calming impact on the viewer. Secord aims to bring beauty, strength and inspiration from the renewal of nature’s seasons to the community of this Bronx station.
