High Line Ð Looking West
About this artwork
The setting is on the High Line, above West 22nd Street on a chilly October afternoon, says artist Nick Savides. A woman sits on a bench looking west, toward the Hudson River. The composition is dominated by the receding diagonals on the right, drawing the viewer's attention towards a glimpse of the water. I was particularly interested in the design of the gray High Line wall and the light and shadows.
