14 St–8 Av (A/C/E/L) — Tom Otterness's 'Life Underground'
What creators say
-
“Tom Otterness's 'Life Underground' (2004) transforms this Chelsea station into a whimsical bronze scavenger hunt featuring over 130 small cast sculptures hidden throughout the platforms and mezzanine. Cartoon-like characters — alligators, workers, and coin-people — play out satirical scenes inspired by 19th-century political cartoonist Thomas Nast's commentary on greed and corruption. Riders delight in discovering new figures tucked on beams, benches, and ledges with each visit.”
