About the Item

Under the El 40.0 x 33.0 x 2.0, 38.0 lbs Mixed Media Hand signed by artist Artist's Commentary: "This series of works features large archival photo transparencies of urban vistas. These images are encased in clear acrylic panels, enhanced with fluorescent or LED lighting, and mounted with stainless steel hardware. The monumental columns of the expressway stand in stark contrast to the surrounding weeds and discarded debris, evoking the tension between industrial infrastructure and the neglected urban landscape. The acrylic panels themselves take on an ethereal quality, reminiscent of the lacy, drippy forms of graffiti often seen on bus shelter panels or windows, adding an element of fragility and transience to the piece." About the Artist: Sculptor Karen Brown's use of mixed media reflects the complex relationship between the urban and industrial landscapes that surround us. Brown’s work explores the intersections of architecture, environment, and human intervention, creating art that is both visually striking and conceptually profound. Brown, a lifelong resident of Philadelphia now based in New Jersey, draws inspiration from the urban landscape, transforming what might be considered unsightly or overlooked into powerful, meaningful art. Her work invites viewers to reflect on how urban and industrial spaces influence and shape our lives and experiences.
