Public art installation in Washington D.C., 'Community In Motion' for 'Art In Transit' by Tamao Nakayama, commissioned by the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority and Tenleytown Main Street

Tenleytown Main Street, Washington D.C. Metro Station Entrance Public Art Project

Tamao Nakayama created a public artwork for the Metropolitan Area Transit Authority and Tenleytown Main Street. The project features a set of four artworks: ‘Baby On Board,’ ‘Kids In Motion,’ ‘Skater In Motion,’ and ‘Seniors In Motion.’

The city needed to hide and beautify ongoing construction at the site, so Tamao designed a series that celebrates the healthy and active community around Tenleytown. She coordinated with the town to select colors that would be most visible to motorists.
