DESCRIPTION: station art installation of an array of 2-foot by 2-foot "tilography" portraits, consisting of 6-inch glazed ceramic tiles, accompanied by the subject's own "Power Statement"
For the Pomona North Metro A Line station, Stephen Farley developed an outreach program with the City of Pomona to produced 56 stylized portraits of Pomona residents accompanied by "Power Statements" describing the person's positive influence. Farley applied his tilography process to create the stylized portraits with "Power Statements" on 2-foot square ceramic tile panels throughout the station platform. The "Power Statements” come from other individuals expressing how the person “made a difference” in their lives. More about the "power statements" program here: Pomona People Power.
