Warm up your green thumbs, pick up your shovels and start digging on #NationalGardeningDay! #CalLane’s "The Digs" (2013) at the Knickerbocker Ave (M) station in #Brooklyn features hand-carved steel #shovels that showcase the elegance of a gothic arch, a shape taken from the local architecture, and patterns found in the nearby neighborhood of #Bushwick.

As the M train charges back into service, we are zooming in on the art that reflects the energy and heritage of the communities along the newly reopened line. George Bates’ “Generation Dynamica” (2013) at Central Avenue and Cal Lane’s “The Digs” (2013) at Knickerbocker Avenue.

Fun fact: In Cal Lane’s “The Digs” (2013) at Knickerbocker Avenue, the pattern in the shovel shape was taken from the local architecture patterns that are repeated in the nearby Bushwick brownstones.
