Thank goodness warm weather is finally here!
Manny Vega’s “Sábado en la Ciento Diez (Saturday on 110th Street),” (1996) at 110 St (6) station puts us in the #perfectsummer frame of mind. The four mosaics – Earth, Air, Fire and Water – represent @mannyvega.nyc’s childhood memories, and the joyous, colorful atmosphere of la ciento diez. Air (seen here) illustrates a typical summer-in-the-city diversion: Children playing under the spray of a fire hydrant, while a #piraguero shaves a block of ice to make tropical fruit-flavored snow cones of guava, papaya, mango, and tamarindo.
