Inglewood CA Series is Kim Schoenstadt’s public art for Inglewood’s Fairview Heights station. Her work on elevated panels holds images of existing and historical buildings in and near Inglewood, including the historic Centinela Adobe, Jet Car Wash, LAX Airport Theme Building and Randy’s Donuts. Redrawn as silhouettes in overlapping gray, gold, turquoise and orange hues, the artwork challenges viewers to identify the architecture. Schoenstadt writes, “My goal is to feed the curiosity of visitors and perhaps teach them something new about the city they are living in or riding through.”

Kim Schoenstadt is a Los Angeles artist who has exhibited widely through southern California and created public art across Los Angeles. She has received national grants and her works are in museum collection in the US and Europe. The transit system art is made possible through the public art program of Metro.net.
