Valentine's Day Tags - Manhattan Bridge Archway, aes.7, 8, 9, & 10



It starts with
a little push.

aes.7
---------

It is said that an
aesthetic experience
lasts about as long as
one notices the scent of a
freshly-peeled orange.

aes.8
---------

Would you like
to dance?

aes.9
---------

Splitting a double-
stick popsicle with
your best friend.
Grape-flavored.

aes.10

I "bombed" this beautiful space in the archway under the Manhattan Bridge in Dumbo on Saturday, tying on four tags. (Normally I only do one a day, but maybe with Valentine's Day in the air I was feeling more expansive.)

By Sunday morning, only one tag was left.

The lonesome string, decoupled from its tag. I think this was the grape popsicle one. The other two were gone too. Guess someone liked them!

Tags 7-12


(It's ok if people take them. It's ok if they blow away. It's ok if they land in a puddle. I won't disturb them if I encounter them again.)

To Hear - Bway/Lafayette F Platform, aes.4

It's so good to
hear your voice.

aes.4


Waited for 2 days for the right spot to present itself at the right time.

I slotted it inside an empty subway map frame mounted on a column toward the back of the Brooklyn-bound side. Was rush hour and hard to feel inconspicuous.

(Is it confusing that I'm not putting out the tags in order?)

The Ride - Plymouth St, aes.6

The ride back home
always seemed faster
than the ride to.

Tied on in same place as Tag #3 (aes.5).
The first one got nabbed, but the string was still there.
Might become a recurring spot.
