Belated 2/02 submission as I forgot to hit the <submit> button before I passed out last night …
#cabi bike leaning against the other half of my previous submission of “Oz & Kansas” at National Landing, split between two locations along Crystal Drive at 15th Street S and 12th Street S at Long Bridge Drive. Drawing inspiration from L. Frank Baum’s The Wizard of Oz, Brandon Hill reimagines these temporary encasements for the new Transitway Extension stations, transforming them into vibrant, immersive murals that bridge fantasy and reality.

My bike leaning against OZ [but not KANSAS which is further down the street], inspired by the Wizard of Oz. OZ and KANSAS were created by artist Brandon Hill of All Day Projects as an adaptive reuse of two temporary encasements for the new transitway extension at National Landing on 12th Street S (corner w/ Long Bridge Drive)
