The First-Ever Evening Art Installation in NYC's Union Square Will Debut in February

www.timeout.com/newyork: Sure, those festive holiday lights have officially burnt out, but that doesn't mean things have to be dark and dreary this winter: the Union Square Partnership (USP) is graciously adding some light and liveliness to the darkest time of the year with its new interactive art installation, "Patterned Behavior" by MASARY Studios, on view every evening (dusk to 10pm) from now through Tuesday, February 17.

This is such a cool idea! I love that it is an immersive piece of art in the middle of the city. The idea that changes or moves due to the people simply on their commute home from work. The article uses the word “ social rhythm” and I think that is a really good descriptor of how society comes together to create this rhythm wether they realize it or not. I have always thought if you listen close enough in a big city that you can make up the beat or tempo of how fast paced that city may be during that time. Not only is this immersive piece adding to that but it is also putting it into perspective. This is thing kinda this that brings the community together in a way and I love that it is through this creative art interaction. I think it is the perfect time to do this because (like the article mentioned) of the time of year. This piece will bring liviness into union square during one of the darkest and coldest times of the year were people are struggling to find something positive. This definitely will bring some smiling faces. I hope to see more immersive pieces like this in the future.
