Ken Gonzales Day’s artwork presents kaleidoscopic views of native manzanita and oak trees, inviting passengers to find shapes and faces hidden within the patterns at Canoga Station for the Orange Line Extension. These images are currently being translated into two 27-foot long elliptical stone and glass mosaic artworks, which will be embedded into the new concrete platforms being added at the Canoga station. (Here’s a link to more information about Ken.)
There are more photos of the artwork being assembled after the jump.
