Chain Star and Chain Web on Newark Avenue
Morning | Night
Do you still see this work of art at the corner of Newark Avenue and Monmouth Street? PJW a.k.a “Pappi” – the artist who made it – calls it the “Chain Star” sculpture. Reason why I asked is because his other work – the “Chain Web” sculpture – has been missing, one day after he installed it at Newark Avenue and 2nd Street.
See photos below:
Pappi’s description: “5 ft x 5 ft web made of jack chain. I put free hanging links to slimulate rain on the web.”
Pappi posted a sign, asking for its return.
Had you seen these sculptures before? Based on the story that Pappi sent me, I am estimating that the sculptures were installed probably 3 weeks ago, prior to his “Glass Bottle Bubbles“, which were taken down by Jersey City Parking Authority. (I’ll post about it as well)
If you know something about the Chain Web, You can contact Pappi by visiting his flickr page here. (You need an account to send a message). There are more pictures of his art there, which I am also going to post here, with his permission.
You can also post a comment here and I’ll forward it to him.
