Pedestrians in New York City know that those metal grates on the sidewalks occasionally expel warm air, powered by passing subway trains. BFA Fine Arts Department student Joshua Allen Harris saw the subterranean gusts blowing a stray piece of plastic construction tape and got the idea for his latest public-art project, Air Bears. Constructed of carefully taped-together white plastic bags, the artworks look like piles of discarded detritus until a blast of air inflates them into freestanding plastic-bag polar bears, standing up and waving around in the wind. When the train-powered breeze dies down, the bears deflate down onto the steel vents.
