These works were commissioned by New Jersey Transit for location
at the Washington Park Lightrail and Bus platform on Broad St. in Newark, NJ. The first piece, titled "Windshields"
serves as a windscreen on the bus platform and consists of 2 pairs intersecting African inspired shields etched glass
and framed in stainless steel. The second piece, a 200 foot long fence located at the platforms edge, is a grouping
of 4 foot tall aluminum letters painted in two shades of blue to alternately create two intersecting sentences readable from both
front and back. The sentence reads "Our greatest glory is not in never falling but in rising every time we fall."
