  • "Cool Water, Hot Island" Times Square Temporary Installation
    With Times Square now officially a pedestrian-only zone, the NYC Department of Transportation is looking to implement a massive overhaul to the area. But before that can happen in 2012, they wanted a semi-temporary installation to "refresh and revive" the streetscape. Molly Dilworth, known for her rooftop pour paintings, was recently awarded the first prize for her entry "Cool Water, Hot Island". Her proposal is a graphical representation of NASA’s infrared satellite data of Manhattan, and appears to be a cool, refreshing river of water flowing down Broadway!
