Las Flores consists of seven faceted glass windscreens, each measuring approximately 84 by 43 inches. Designed for the above-ground platform of the Cleveland Street Subway Station in Brooklyn, NY, Las Flores appropriates flower patterns taken from a long tradition of folk decoration. The flowers are set against a crackle pattern delineated by color-coordinated epoxy.
