Titled “Single Fare 4,” the showcase marks the fourth installment of Kagan and Roy’s ongoing project that asks artists to reimagine the quintessential Big Apple object to their hearts’ content. A diverse batch of works will be on display at the upcoming function located at Highline Stages, spanning illustrations, installations, sculptures, as well as immersive experiences.

“Single Fare 4” will run from September 16-17. Head over to the exhibition’s official website to learn more.
