You can’t stay neutral on a moving train
Howard Zinn
Artist Statement
Howard Zinn warns of the passive participation in the making of history with his metaphor of the barreling train. Inspired by satellite images of rail yards, Zinn’s metaphor is materialized through overlapping lines and cautionary yellow with an arching path disrupting the composition. Set in Tatsuro, the type originates from the internment of Japanese-Americans during WWII and is reminiscent of the type often found on rail cars.
