News • Lower Manhattan • New York City • United States • 2011-09-07
As part of the popular Re:Construction program, the Downtown Alliance unveiled the installation of Rita MacDonald’s Drift. Through Re:Construction, construction sites are recast as public art canvasses.
Drift, at 24 John Street, uses patterns from architectural details as a starting point, starting as flat images that stretch, arc and contort in space so that the optical effects of the pattern create illusions of movement and volume that push up against the flatness of the wall\'s surface. In Drift, the stripe pattern on the scaffolding takes its inspiration from a swatch of awning fabric and turns the stripe on its side to create a gesture of movement and motion that mirrors the movement of the city streets and sidewalks below.
Drift is the 26th Re:Construction installation. Launched in 2007, Re:Construction is produced by the Downtown Alliance, and funded by a $1.5 million grant from the Lower Manhattan Development Corporation. About half of the 25 earlier temporary installations are still up for viewing in the area.
