Art on the undergroud

The London underground has often provided me with lots of inspiration. All the adverts, tube posters, and exhibitions that appear all over the underground were the only thing that would keep me sane whilst commuting into school each day during rush hour. I am particularly fond of the 48 sheet posters lining the platforms that get all Londoners thinking as they wait for their train. In addition the that line the walls as you go up and down the escalators almost seem to brainwash you as they are often repeated several times in a row.

My stop for school was Gloucester rd that holds an exhibition space for artists to show their work. At present the LA based artist Pae White has exhibited her work. She is renowned for her sensitive use o materials. I am interested in one piece where she has created a mobile of millions of colored paper discs as it creates a feeling of weightlessness and happiness, which is what we need on the mundane commute to work each day!
