Public Art Commissions
Currents, North Station, Boston, MA, 2005 (permanent installation)
Commissioned by the Massachusetts Bay Transit Authority, Currents is a series of 200 photo-panels of harbor scenes, in sepia on aluminum, which animate when viewed from a passing bus.

Square2, Davis Square, Somerville, MA, 2001
Funded by the Visible Republic program of the New England Foundation for the Arts, this project saturated Davis Square for one month with thousands of photographs of its own pedestrians, on every level from micro to macro: from café napkins to manhole covers, from leaves on trees to a flag in the park. A self-portrait of the intersection, Square2 questioned ownership of public space.
