The LED sculpture takes the form of a honeycomb, dramatically filling an architectural space in the shape of an ellipse above the stairs that marks the new transfer point connecting the IRT and IND subway lines.

Villareal created an unprecedented art experience for transit riders who use the station, in its use of technology and LEDs.
