Do you like waiting for a train to arrive in a stuffy and shabby corridor or on a platform with a bunch of advertising posters on scary tiled walls? Most of the metro stations have a rather shabby, dull and dull appearance from an aesthetic point of view. But this is no longer the case for Bayview in Toronto, which has taken on a new look thanks to the talented Canadian artist Panya Clark Espinal, who gave her a new original design.
Twenty-four individually designed shadow images of common objects such as an apple, a staircase, an alarm clock or an umbrella now adorn the walls and floors of Bayview Station, blending harmoniously with its architecture. If you look at a certain projection, from a specific point, the drawings look quite realistic, but if you look at it from a different angle, the painted picture looks like an abstraction.
Pania Clark Espinal is a leading contemporary Canadian artist whose creative practice includes work as an artist, sculptor, designer and even a gardener. Pania was born in Toronto, Canada in 1965 and continues to live and work in her hometown and beloved city. The artist graduated from the Ontario College of Art in 1988 and also completed a course at the Parson School of Design in New York. Her work is shown not only in Canada but around the world.

How people in antiquity waged underground wars, or the rules of correct undermining
The war at all times for most people was a tragic and very bloody event. And for the peoples and territories participating in it, a real hell. However, in hoary antiquity, people also practiced underground battles, which at times were much more terrible than armed skirmishes on land or sea.

But we have to admit that many fashion shows this year were held at a level below the plinth. Commercials at 11-12 meters. Because these were fashion shows in the very underground - namely in subway cars
Underbelly Project: underground street art in New York
The Underbelly Project, which was attended by 103 street artists from around the world, could have become one of the most high-profile and anticipated art projects of the year, but it was quite the opposite. It is located underground, in one of the abandoned metro stations - but no one knows exactly where. There were no spectators, no critics, no collectors in the huge room with drawings applied directly to the wall. Moreover, the opening day of the exhibition became at the same time the day of its closing. And uh

Beasts on the London Underground. Creative art project by Paul Middlewick
The poem "Once I walked around London, And suddenly I met an elephant on Berkeley Street. And he says modestly …" I remember from childhood. But only recently I happened to find out that there are indeed elephants in the London Underground. And not only elephants, but also flamingos, whales, bats, bears, monkeys, beavers and, of course, cats and dogs too. Where did this whole zoo come from, you ask?
