Hilma’s Ghost, a feminist collective formed in 2020, has recently unveiled a stunning glass mosaic titled “Abstract Futures” at the 2nd Street entrance to the 7 train in Grand Central Station. Spanning 600 square feet, this cosmic map is a vibrant and transformative work of art created by artists Sharmistha Ray and Dannielle Tegeder.

The collective draws inspiration from the visionary artist and mystic Hilma af Klint, known for her innovative contemporary art practices paired with spirituality. Their tarot deck, which has gained a cult following, shares the same name as this new MTA Arts & Design-commissioned project, marking their first public artwork.

The mosaic is divided into three parts, each representing a different aspect of transformation. The first section, “The Fool,” symbolizes new beginnings with its bold reds, pinks, and oranges, encouraging viewers to embrace creative intuition and courage.

Next is “The Wheel of Fortune,” featuring grounding greens and browns in a cyclical pattern that reflects a natural rhythm. This piece aims to bring the passionate energy back to Earth and propel viewers towards the future with its concentric orbs and ochre diamonds.

The final and largest segment of the mosaic is a celestial blue triangle meeting an orange inverted plane, inspired by “The World” tarot card. This section emphasizes the harmonious relationship between shadows and wisdom within us, symbolizing regeneration and the ability to start anew.

The artists hope that “Abstract Futures” will inspire a new perspective on the city, reflecting the interconnectivity between people, spaces, and time. They see New York as a dynamic network of diversity and interconnectivity, with the mural’s imagery, pattern, and color serving as a metaphor for the city’s endless vibrancy.

Miotto Mosaic Art Studios fabricated the work, showcasing the collective’s collaborative projects on their website. This transformative mosaic is a powerful addition to the public art landscape, inviting commuters to pause and reflect on the endless possibilities of the future.
