MTA Metro-North Railroad • Bronx Stations
Botanical Garden, Williams Bridge, and Woodlawn
MTA Arts & Design seeks images of artists’ previous work to review in consideration for new permanent Percent for Art projects, in conjunction with the renovation of Botanical Garden, Williams Bridge, and Woodlawn stations on Metro-North’s Harlem Line in the Bronx. An approved fabricator will translate the final artwork designs into durable media. The artworks are projected to be realized in glass and metal. An artist’s prior experience with these materials will not be taken into consideration when reviewing images.
SELECTION PROCESS
A selection panel comprised of arts and design professionals will select finalists to develop original proposals. Finalists will be given site specifications and a detailed over-view of the project to create a proposal for site-specific artwork for the stations, for which they will receive an honorarium of $1,250. Following the selection panel’s review of proposals, one artist per station will be selected to receive the commission.
The budget for design and fabrication of the artwork at each station is to be determined. The selected artist will receive an artist fee and be required to produce final designs, select a fabricator and oversee the fabrication and installation of the artwork, with project management by MTA Arts & Design.
TO APPLY
Eligibility is based upon artistic merit as evidenced in previous work, exhibition history, awards, honors, and publications, and demonstrated proficiency and technical knowledge of the medium(s) in which the artist regularly works.

Undercover ID, 2025
Mixed media, site-specific Rotunda installation, 319-inch diameter
Courtesy of the artist
In Undercover ID, Luis Stephenberg transforms the Lehman College Art Gallery's Rotunda into a complex meditation on perception and containment. Through masterful orchestration of space and material, Stephenberg reveals how our senses shape identity, while being shaped by social and economic structures. At the installation's core, four enigmatic figures emerge from a central column, each wrapped form embodying one of the human senses—sight, sound, taste, and touch. These shrouded presences stand in silent dialog with the surrounding walls of branded burlap, where carefully placed knots mark points of tension and connection. The circular arrangement of burlap panels, stamped with "Undercover ID" like agricultural commodity bales, creates a perimeter where knots punctuate the intersections of supporting ropes. The knots, appearing at regular intervals along the walls, form a rhythmic counterpoint to wrapped figures at the center, suggesting the tension between individual sensory experience and external systems of containment. Two folds in the burlap reveal GPS locations of the Art Gallery that produce dialog between embodied sensation and digital tracking. Stephenberg's use of rugged materials—particularly the branded burlap that recalls Puerto Rico's colonial agricultural past—points to how sensory experience becomes packaged within larger systems of commerce and control.

One Red Bale, County Route 21, Ghent, New York, 2012
Route 9, Livingston, New York, 2020
Photographs
Courtesy of the artist
One Red Bale captures a singular mystery: a lone crimson-wrapped bale set against undulating hills. In this photograph and in Route 9, both from her ongoing chronicle of Columbia County's agricultural landscape, Diane Smook explores the visual language of contemporary farming practices. Her images reveal both intentional and arbitrary aspects of rural labor, in which the farmers' practical decisions inadvertently create artistic compositions on the landscape. Smook, encountering the unexplained splash of color in One Red Bale, recognized its compelling visual power. Her photograph’s panoramic format emphasizes the bale's solitude, while its bright artificial hue transforms it into an enigmatic focal point in the pastoral scene. Route 9 presents a more systematic arrangement, where a precise line of white-wrapped cylindrical bales creates an almost architectural presence in the landscape. Route 9 also documents the shift from traditional rectangular hay bales to modern round ones, protected by plastic wrapping against the elements. Smook, who photographs agricultural scenes near her home, creates an artistic aesthetic that also reveals the consequences of technological change in agriculture, where necessary adaptations articulate the character of today’s rural landscape.

House by the Water, 2022
Oil on canvas
Courtesy of Forum Gallery, New York
In Fenniak's enigmatic House by the Water, a luminous white construction tent acts as a ghostly veil, endowing the house beneath its billowing form with mystery. The painting's composition creates a compelling tension between revelation and concealment–the stark white fabric catches light with crystalline precision, yet stubbornly guards its secret beneath its folds, the house lurking a shadowy, sullen object. This draped form echoes art historical traditions of the covered object, from Magritte's shrouded lovers to Christo and Jeanne-Claude's monumental, wrapped installations, while maintaining its own contemporary mystery. The setting itself speaks to desolate isolation: the suggestion of a winter season in a summer town. Barely discernable in the fog, another house stands in the background, while dark water pools before it, ominously close to the structure. Fenniak's luscious handling of oil paint captures the interplay of light on fabric, water, and architecture, creating an atmosphere that hovers between the dreary and the divine. The ordinary act of covering something–perhaps to protect it from the elements–transforms into a meditation on the things we choose to hide or reveal. We become witnesses to this scene of domestic mystery, invited to contemplate what lies beneath.

Magic Potion, 2023
Mixed media on wood
Courtesy of the artist
In Magic Potion Claudia DeMonte explores the universal human desire to control fate through mystical means. Like a genie's lamp waiting to be rubbed or Pandora's box before its fateful opening, DeMonte's vessel carries the tantalizing promise of the unknown within its sealed confines. The work connects to humanity's enduring relationship with talismans and protective symbols—from the warning Hamsa hand to the fortune-bringing Four-leaf clover. DeMonte notes how symbols can carry contradictory meanings across cultures, such as the snake, which represents evil in Irish folklore but brings good fortune in Indian traditions. This duality enriches the mystery of her sealed vessel, leaving us to wonder whether it contains blessings or curses. As part of DeMonte's broader artistic investigation of women's experiences in global society, her magic potion bottle speaks to the age-old association between women and mystical power. Like the classical Fates who spun, measured, and cut the thread of destiny, this artist presents us with an object that seems to contain transformative potential—yet keeps its secrets tantalizingly concealed, inviting but never satisfying our desire to know what lies within. The artist says her work, “tempts you to open it, to see what it beholds.”

Mummified Barbie, 2010 (three)
Barbie doll, beeswax, twine

Courtesy of the artist and Carolina Nitsch Gallery
In her Mummified Barbie series, E.V. Day transforms the iconic doll through an act of ritual concealment, wrapping Barbie's familiar form in layers of beeswax, twine, and glitter. This process of “mummification” both preserves and obscures, creating an object that hovers between mysterious cultural artifact and contemporary critique. Through the act of wrapping, Day deliberately conceals Barbie's famous attributes—the impossible proportions, the fixed rictus smile, the ready-for-anything pose—that have made her such a potent symbol of idealized femininity. The resulting form becomes simultaneously sacred and absurd: a glamorous mummy that connects ancient death preservation practices with the torture of modern beauty rituals. The addition of silver glitter to the wrapped surface adds a knowing wink to this transformation, maintaining Barbie's association with glamour even in her bound state. By mummifying Barbie, Day positions the doll within a longer history of fetishized feminine figures, from ancient Venus statues to contemporary beauty icons. The wrapped form becomes both relic and commentary, inviting us to consider how societies across time have preserved, presented, and constrained representations of feminine beauty.

Avital Burg transforms the overlooked poetry of urban refuse into contemplative still life. Her fascination with cardboard boxes began during a student exchange at London's Slade School, where the temporary nature of her stay made her acutely aware of these humble vessels of transition. What started as practical containers for her eventual return to New York evolved into rich subjects for her artistic exploration. The artist said, “When I first moved to New York, I was struck by the presence of cardboard boxes in public spaces—the piles left out for recycling felt like installations of consumption and personal memory, each one holding traces of the lives or commodities they once carried.” Working directly from boxes found on city streets, Burg observes how each carries its own distinct character—unique hues that challenge her paint-mixing skills, wrinkles and tears that map past journeys, and stamps and tape that chronicle their histories. Through Burg's patient observation and masterful oil technique, these disposable containers become repositories of memory, each crease and fold suggesting the invisible narratives of lives and objects that once passed through the temporary shelter the boxes provided for a time.

Avital Burg transforms the overlooked poetry of urban refuse into contemplative still life. Her fascination with cardboard boxes began during a student exchange at London's Slade School, where the temporary nature of her stay made her acutely aware of these humble vessels of transition. What started as practical containers for her eventual return to New York evolved into rich subjects for her artistic exploration. The artist said, “When I first moved to New York, I was struck by the presence of cardboard boxes in public spaces—the piles left out for recycling felt like installations of consumption and personal memory, each one holding traces of the lives or commodities they once carried.” Working directly from boxes found on city streets, Burg observes how each carries its own distinct character—unique hues that challenge her paint-mixing skills, wrinkles and tears that map past journeys, and stamps and tape that chronicle their histories. Through Burg's patient observation and masterful oil technique, these disposable containers become repositories of memory, each crease and fold suggesting the invisible narratives of lives and objects that once passed through the temporary shelter the boxes provided for a time.

Wrapped Caryatids on the Euston Road, London, 2011
Silver gelatin print
Courtesy of the artist
In this atmospheric photograph, Briggs captures a striking moment of architectural transformation when the historic caryatids of St Pancras Church were temporarily shrouded during restoration. The four classical female figures, normally standing as graceful architectural supports, take on an eerily modern presence beneath their protective wrappings. The ghostly forms seem both present and absent, their identities concealed yet their powerful silhouettes remain. The wrappings transform the neoclassical caryatids into something more ambiguous—figures that could be emerging from or disappearing into their coverings. The figures have fascinating history. Their sculptor, Charles Rossi, discovered they were too tall but only after installation began. His remarkably pragmatic solution —he chopped chunks from their midsections and then rejoined the sculpted bodies, leaving these London "handmaidens" with dumpier proportions than their ancient Greek counterparts in the British Museum. Through Briggs's lens, these wrapped monuments echo both ancient Greek sculptures and 20th-century artistic interventions, particularly recalling Christo and Jeanne-Claude's famous wrapped buildings and monuments. The black-and-white medium Briggs employs enhances the sculptural quality of the draped forms, while the square format of the print creates a stark, contemporary composition. This photograph preserves a fleeting moment when practical conservation measures inadvertently created an artistic intervention of their own.

In enigmatic marble reliefs Douglas Goldberg explores the delicate interplay between revelation and concealment. His masterful stone carving present mysterious compositions whose features are obscured by fabric-like drapery, creating arresting tension between presence and absence. The shadowy surface of Portrait (Traveling by Night) enhances the sense of nocturnal movement. The draped form suggests metaphorical mourning, its identity veiled yet somehow more powerfully present through its concealment. The flowing contours of the carved stone capture a moment of transition, where the act of covering paradoxically reveals something essential about human vulnerability and protection. Portrait at a Tender Age, carved from warm creamy marble, evokes childhood's delicate nature through its gentle folds and intimate scale. The wrapped form speaks to the ways young identity is both sheltered and shaped by its coverings. Together, these works invite contemplation of how identity persists—or perhaps intensifies—when hidden from direct view, suggesting that the act of wrapping might serve not to obscure but, instead, to preserve something precious within.

Courtesy of the Ulterior Gallery and the artist
In Mazza's Nuit Blanche series, pristine white opera gloves become the vehicle for an exquisite choreography of tension and restraint. Her intimate paintings capture moments where elegance collides with violence–long formal gloves twist and strain around unseen hands, their immaculate surfaces interrupted by glimpses of red that suggest the pain of the body beneath the fabric. The flashes of crimson transform these paintings from pure studies of formal elegance into something far more visceral and unsettling. The strategic reveal of red through wrist openings in the twisted fabric show the discord between surface refinement and underlying biological reality, and the artist's masterful rendering transforms these accessories of high society into psychological portraits of contained struggle. The works' small scale and stark black backgrounds focus our attention on these moments of constrained violence, while Mazza's precise brush strokes captures every fold and shadow of the straining white fabric. The title Nuit Blanche (White Night) takes on new meaning in this context –it is remindful not just sleeplessness but also the dark undercurrents that pulse beneath society's polished exterior.

Courtesy of the artist
In her poignant sculptures Abid meticulously carves everyday objects to explore themes of displacement and migration. Zaad-e-raah, meaning "provisions for a journey" in Urdu, takes the form of a simple sack that Abid renders with extraordinary precision in pine wood. Like real luggage carried by refugees, the sack, a closed bag completely conceals its contents—perhaps a family heirloom or photograph that, as Abid notes, serves as "one thing, at least, that they can connect with the past." Her second work here, Fragments of Home Left Behind echoes the motif of migration in the image of a figure that is seen in the carved rearview mirror—a symbol of this migrant’s past being left behind. The figure carries the same sack depicted in Zaad-e-raah, creating a powerful dialogue between the two works. Combining carved wood with traditional South Asian artistic techniques including gouache on wasli paper, the intimate scale of Fragments draws viewers into its narrative of displacement and survival. "I primarily work in wood," Abid explains, "because it's primarily a male-dominated medium, and I thought it was lacking [in] a female voice."

In Together, Oudenot presents two silvered heads that appear to meet in an anticipated kiss. Haunting and poetic, the sculpture engages in direct dialogue with René Magritte's iconic
The Lovers,1928, where the Belgian surrealist depicted two figures kissing through wrapped fabric veils. Like Magritte, Oudenot explores how concealment can paradoxically heighten emotional resonance. While Magritte's wrapped lovers suggest the impossibility of true connection—their kiss forever separated by cloth barriers—Oudenot's forms seem to merge at their meeting point, their surfaces and identities less obscured. The piece captures that ineffable moment when two separate entities begin to lose their boundaries, suggesting both the promise and the terror of truly merging with another. In Bedsheets, volcanic ash and acrylic paint merge with fabric and resin to create a windswept form that appears frozen in motion. The dramatic interplay of black and white suggests a frozen, crystalline quality that captures the exact moment when darkness seeps into light. The work's textile foundation—the humble bedsheet—becomes a vehicle for exploring themes of intimacy and distance, the domestic and the sublime.

Reveal, 2018
Blue Tarp/ Manhattan, 2019
Photographs, digitally printed on silk, pieced, hand stitched
Courtesy of the artist and Duane Reed Gallery
In Luanne Rimel's photographs, construction scaffolding becomes the stage for revealing the poetry of urban transformation. Capturing the dramatic interplay between concealment and disclosure that characterizes cities, her wrapped works suggest a city in constant change. Blue Tarp/Manhattan presents the utilitarian beauty of a construction tarp, its cerulean folds creating an accidental abstraction against the geometric precision of scaffolding bars. The fabric's undulating surface, wrapped tightly yet billowing, is translated by the artist onto silk through digital printing and enhanced by hand stitching, to transform an everyday protective covering into a rumination on the ephemeral nature of urban landscapes. In Reveal, Rimel turns her lens to buildings wrapped in metallic sheeting, where crumpled silver surfaces create a topography of light and shadow. Its composition suggests both a rising curtain and a glimpse behind it, playing with notions of what lies beneath the surface of architectural metamorphosis. Together, the works speak to the anticipation in urban renewal and the suspense between what is hidden and what is about to emerge. By focusing on temporary structures and materials, Rimel elevates often overlooked elements of the urban landscape into contemplative studies of transition. The works invite viewers to consider construction sites not as inconveniences, but as cocoons of possibility.

Sarah McKenzie explores the liminal spaces of art fairs and gallery construction, where temporary architectural wrapping creates an uncanny atmosphere of transition and concealment. In Frieze McKenzie depicts the behind-the-scenes infrastructure of one of the world’s most famous international art fairs. Translucent plastic sheeting stretches across metal framework, concealing the industrial air conditioning units that make these temporary exhibition spaces habitable. The interplay between opacity and transparency reveals the careful orchestration required to transform a tent into a glamorous exhibition venue, while the diffused light filtering through the plastic membrane softens the industrial elements into an almost ethereal atmosphere. Well focuses on a partially wrapped staircase, where draped plastic transforms an ordinary architectural feature into something mysteriously sculptural. The creases and folds of the protective covering create abstract geometric patterns, while the exposed steps beneath ground the composition in the familiar. By focusing on the temporary wrappings that usually go unseen, McKenzie elevates these utilitarian coverings into subjects worthy of careful observation, finding poetry in the provisional moments of an exhibition’s preparation.

Mansize, 2017
HD Video
Courtesy of Green On Red Gallery and the artist
In Mansize Caroline McCarthy transforms the mundane act of pulling tissues from a box into a mesmerizing meditation on consumerism, gender, and the poetry of everyday objects. Her feature-length video shows 100 "Mansize" tissues being extracted one by one, each emerging as a distinct sculptural form, before yielding to the next tissue in a hypnotic sequence. The drama of each tissue's emergence is heightened by its initial concealment within the box─we cannot anticipate the exact shape or form until it unfolds before us. Like wrapped gifts or magic tricks, the tissues remain mysterious until the moment of revelation. McCarthy orchestrates this unveiling with precise attention to pacing and sound. As each tissue emerges, the soundtrack amplifies the violent rustle of paper, creating moments of dramatic tension before subsiding into charged silence. The work's title carries resonance, as Kleenex retired their "Mansize" branding in 2017─the same year as this film's creation—in favor of the gender-neutral "Extra Large." This timing positions the artwork as both a document of changing social attitudes and a wry commentary on how consumer products reflect and reinforce gender assumptions. By focusing intently on this single box of tissues, the artist reveals how everyday objects carry complex narratives about gender, marketing, and social values.

Flower Messenger, Times Square, New York City, 1955

Courtesy of Bruce Silverstein Gallery
A messenger of love or loss strides through Times Square in this arresting photograph by Frank Paulin. A man in a leather jacket and sunglasses holds an elaborate bouquet wrapped in crisp white paper, creating a compelling juxtaposition between his cool demeanor and his delicate cargo. Paulin's composition emphasizes this dynamic through his control of light and shadow. The bright white wrapping of the flowers stands out dramatically against the dark leather jacket and sunglasses, while the busy Times Square backdrop recedes into soft blur. A technical approach characteristic of the New York School of street photographers working in the 1950s, it documented the city's endless stream of unexpected moments and chance encounters. The sight of wrapped flowers moving through city streets has always carried particular emotional charge. Whether clutched in the hands of nervous suitors, jubilant well-wishers, or tender consolers, they signal that somewhere in the urban maze a significant moment is about to unfold. Here, the scale of the bouquet suggests a grand gesture in the making, while the messenger's purposeful stride hints at the anticipation that awaits at his destination. The image raises intriguing questions about the package’s purpose. Who will receive this impressive bouquet? Is it a gesture of romance, celebration, or condolence?

A messenger of love or loss strides through Times Square in this arresting photograph by Frank Paulin. A man in a leather jacket and sunglasses holds an elaborate bouquet wrapped in crisp white paper, creating a compelling juxtaposition between his cool demeanor and his delicate cargo. Paulin's composition emphasizes this dynamic through his control of light and shadow. The bright white wrapping of the flowers stands out dramatically against the dark leather jacket and sunglasses, while the busy Times Square backdrop recedes into soft blur.

Plantains in a Box, 1969
Oil on canvas
Courtesy of the artist and DC Moore Gallery, New York
In Plantains in a Box Janet Fish demonstrates her celebrated ability to capture the complex interplay of light, transparency, and organic form. The large-scale square canvas presents a deceptively simple subject—plantains contained within tightly stretched plastic wrap—yet Fish transforms this everyday still life into a study of visual perception and painterly virtuosity. Her characteristic attention to the behavior of light as it passes through, reflects, and interacts with different surfaces is on full display. The transparent covering creates multiple layers of visual complexity as we see both through and around it, while the plantains themselves cast subtle shadows and reflections. The artist's precise observation of these optical effects results in a painting that is both hyper-realistic and abstractly composed. Fish created this painting early in her career during a period when still life painting was often dismissed as conventional but her contemporary approach asserts the genre's continuing relevance. By choosing modern materials like plastic alongside traditional still life subjects like fruit she updates the centuries-old tradition of the still life, while maintaining its focus on close observation and lighting effects. The large scale of Plantains elevates ordinary objects to monumental status, demanding we pay attention to the extraordinary visual qualities of everyday things.

Gift Wrap (Red Apple), 1959
Unique watercolor & lithograph on paper
Authenticated
Courtesy of Woodward Gallery
Looking at Gift Wrap (Red Apple), we witness a fascinating moment in Warhol's artistic journey between commercial illustration and fine art. In this unique piece, Warhol demonstrates his masterful understanding of both design and visual psychology inherent in gift-giving. He creates a pattern for Gift Wrap, a pattern that is a dance of visual elements, drawing attention and deflecting it. This artist celebrates the anticipation of a gift and the mystery of gift-giving through a delightful array of stamped motifs ─ stars that cascade in size, swooping birds, flitting butterflies, and various organic elements─all rendered in black ink, except for the single, striking red apple. The strategic use of a solitary red apple reflects a fundamental principle of interior design that Warhol would have known well from his commercial work─the power of a single red object to command attention in an otherwise monochromatic space. Like the wrapped gift itself, the red apple becomes a focal point of desire and curiosity and its origins speak to Warhol's early work where he created illustrations for elite clients, including Tiffany & Co., the iconic jewelry store, and Vogue magazine. This artist combines lithography with watercolor to transform what could have been a mass-produced wrapping paper design into a unique artwork that celebrates the joy of gifting and the artful act of concealment.

Wrapped Monument to Vittorio Emanuele
(Project for Piazza Duomo, Milan)
1970‐74
Graphite, charcoal, wax crayon, and brown paper on cardboard
Signed and dated upper right
Courtesy of the Christo and Jeanne-Claude Foundation
Wrapped Monument to Vittorio Emanuele showcases Christo's revolutionary approach to transforming public monuments through the act of wrapping. A preparatory drawing, it demonstrates the artist's meticulous planning process for a proposed, but unrealized, monumental intervention in Milan's historic Piazza Duomo, obscuring one of Italy's most prominent patriotic symbols. The monument in question honors Vittorio Emanuele II, the first king of a unified Italy, who ruled from 1861 to 1878. Created by sculptor Ercole Rosa and inaugurated in 1896, the bronze equestrian statue depicts the monarch astride his horse, representing the power and authority of the newly formed Italian state. Christo depicts this symbol of state power enveloped in his signature industrial fabric. Christo's technique of enveloping monuments transforms familiar public sculptures into mysterious presences─the recognizable form of horse and rider becomes an abstract series of peaks and valleys created by the fabric's folds. Here, we see how wrapping simultaneously reveals and conceals. While the basic silhouette of the equestrian monument remains discernible, the details of Vittorio Emanuele II's features, regalia, and the horse's musculature are obscured. The wrapping creates new formal relationships─sharp angles and deep crevices where the fabric gathers, smooth planes where it pulls taut. These textile geometries draw attention to aspects of the monument's form that might otherwise go unnoticed.
