Cornucopia
Lynn Basa
Byzantine glass mosaic and hand-painted ceramic
2014, Arts in Transit

Reflective of the Argyle neighborhood where cultures mix in a melting pot of cuisines, art, music and color, this Byzantine glass and hand-painted mosaic by Chicago-based artist Lynn Basa is about joyful abundance and harmony. Each of the flower forms are symbolic of the unique individuals, each with their own distinctive personalities, who move through the Argyle station on their way to someplace else.

 

Artwork also featured on cover of the 2016 CTA public art catalog.
