Riding the Rails: NYC to Lancaster, PA and Back

So, last week, I had to travel to Lancaster, PA to meet our new graphics vendor (at the day job). Since I was going to be on a train most of the day, I needed to find a way to pass the time. Yes, of course I could read and/or listen to music (which I did) but, who would I be if I weren’t capturing the sights? So, I shot these from the moving train – there and bak again.

Smack Mellon 3/8/08

From Rita MacDonald’s “Tic”

From Jennifer Dalton’s “Jennifer Dalton is a Scientist – Not!”

From Amanda C. Mathis’ “Under Renovation”

From Smack Mellon’s Press Release:

Smack Mellon is proud to feature the work of Jennifer Dalton, Rita MacDonald and Amanda Mathis, three Brooklyn based artists presenting new projects. In the main gallery space, Mathis’ disorienting large-scale installation shifts the natural order of the gallery’s architecture, while MacDonald’s 24-foot high undulating wall drawing subtly distorts viewer’s depth perception. Turning the back project room into a quasi-laboratory, Dalton presents the culmination of her yearlong survey project conducted with Smack Mellon visitors. These three solo projects offer diverse definitions of site-specific art.
