Among the featured artists are Yayoi Kusama, Kiki Smith, Nick Cave, Ann Hamilton, Xenobia Bailey, Jim Hodges, Alex Katz, Sarah Sze, and Vik Muniz. Of special interest is the discussion of fabricating and transposing the artists rendering or model into mosaic, glass, or metal, the materials that can survive in the transit environment.
