POETIC LIGHT - Louise Braverman Architect

Poetic Light Installation
Grand Central Terminal, NYC

Poetic Light, a light and video installation located in a storefront within Grand Central Terminal, explored the possibility of creating a momentary pause for art within a hectic urban landscape. It was an attempt to make the path of the New York city commuter a bit more vital. The installation addresses the inherent contradiction of encountering poetry, which by its very nature is an intimate experience, in a 45 foot long glass enclosed public space within Grand Central Terminal. It was meant to be viewed up close as well as at a distance.
