Project Description

Groh’s photographs capture opulent reflections from the Wilshire/Normandie Metro Rail station’s architecture. These stunning images of walls, rails and signage encourage commuters to become more visually engaged with their surroundings. The artist has used a grainy film to enhance the idea of how a passenger’s glance may commit a fleeting detail to memory.

Artist Statement

“The images encourage commuters to find the actual locations of the pictures within the station; perhaps in this process they will discover their own personal voyages of reflections.”
