Across the Floor is so nostalgic of my time growing up on the East Coast. I have visited Grand Central Station many times and remember it being one of the most magical moments. The train gets quiet and everything goes dark as you enter the underground tunnel. As you exit, passengers push against each other through the hot, humid platforms and then you emerge to find yourself under the constellations. Being surrounded by so many people who don't seem to keep still long enough to enjoy it, but I could always take a deep breath in this moment. This print captures the bustle and beauty of this iconic New York City experience.
