Deer Park Dahlias
2018
Deer Park (Ronkonkoma)
Long Island Rail Road
William Low’s artwork at the LIRR Deer Park station creates a contemplative space in the station waiting room. The vibrantly colored dahlias situated in a pastoral field were translated into laminated glass by Tom Patti Design. The large scale of the flowers shift the viewer’s perspective and provide an experience of childlike wonder in the natural world.
The artwork is derived from the local area’s botanic legacy: Central Park was first landscaped with ornamental trees and shrubs that had been grown in Deer Park, and the town was well known for annual dahlia festivals. The area is still a floral site, with several wholesale nurseries near to the station. "Deer Park Dahlias" acknowledges this specific, but not widely known, aspect of the community.
