Roberto Salas, "Blue Line Totems in Red"

Blue Line Totems in Red

Artist(s):

“Blue Line Totems in Red” is Roberto Salas’s tribute to the historic Red Cars of the Pacific Electric Railway. The key element of the project is a series of red “totems” mounted on the platform columns and perforated with designs taken from the 1,100 unique shapes used by conductors to punch tickets on the old Red Cars.
