Memento

In collaboration with Mesa Arts Center architects, local artist Rebecca Ross created this passenger shelter located on the northeast corner of Center Street and 1st Avenue. Memento consists of photographs, both made in and inspired by the city's original square mile, that have been transferred onto porcelain-enameled steel for permanent display. The images bear witness to a shared history and offer scenes of private life from the neighborhoods surrounding this entry point into Mesa's cultural center.
