Jasun Martz

Artist Statement:

When I ride the New York Subways, I stare at the faces. Most people look down and avoid eye contact... oblivious. I love that fate has thrown this motley lot of passengers together. Every type of person on this earth is accounted for on a metropolitian subway train. The grinding of metal wheels on metal tracks makes the ride musical but it's the faces of the fellow passengers that make it memorable. When the riders exit the car, I know I'll never see them again. But their hopes, dreams and fears are dutifully captured forever in my art.

Jasun March, 2001, New York City
