Hollywood/ highland station The underground girl- designed by Sheila Klein (2000) - is a theatrical projected image that leads passengers into an undulating, organic and sensual station cavity. Creativity makes this art because it was designed to represent a girl underground. The image that represents the girl is metal- like flower between two underground train tracks. Avalon Station Portrait of my people #619- designed by Willie Middlebrook (1995)- photographic images of artists from the surrounding community and are featured in a large porcelain enamel mural on the lower level of the station. Experience and inspiration makes this art because the dominant image in this art is an African American and the portraits in the art are people. Imperial station Hide n’ seek- designed by JoeSam., (1993)- created in collaboration with local school children, giant painted figures play amongst the freeway columns. Imagination makes this art because the idea of school children playing hide and seek on freeway columns is very thoughtful. Pathway to freedom- designed by Robin Strayhorn and Michael Massenburg (2002)- Concrete and ceramic tile benches honor important historical in the life of Rosa Parks. Experience makes this art, because this art was created honoring Rosa Parks historical impact, the idea of the bench represents the seat on the bus in which Rosa Parks refused to give up. The Concrete and ceramic tile portrays the seat’s strength. The stairs with the bars has music notes imprinted on it, if one sings the song; they sing the Hollywood theme song. All arts were related to theatrical art, this explains what Hollywood is about.
