In partnership with the Chinatown Business Improvement District (BID) and Artist Dasic Fernandez, the New York City Department of Transportation (DOT) recently installed a 4,800 square foot asphalt art mural on Doyers Street between Pell Street and Bowery in Manhattan. Commissioned through DOT’s Art Program, this project builds on Mayor de Blasio’s “State of the City” commitment to bring beautifully designed public spaces to the top 33 neighborhoods across NYC hit the hardest by COVID-19. These new spaces help support local small businesses, foster community ties, and provide space for arts, culture, and programming.

Artist Dasic Fernandez’s mural entitled, Rice Terraces, aims to promote community engagement on the Open Street and become an extension of the local businesses’ space. The vibrant 44 color mural design draws inspiration from Chinese rice cultivation terraces, one of the most common landscapes seen throughout China.

Formerly part of DOT’s Seasonal Streets program, Doyers Street has been the site of several murals since 2018. This project is Doyers Street’s third mural commissioned by the DOT Art and Public Space Units. As a part of the DOT Art Program, the agency collaborates with community- based, nonprofit organizations to commission artists to design and install temporary, site-responsive artwork on NYC DOT property for up to 11 months. DOT Art pursues unique project sites across all five boroughs and explores new ways to collaborate with a diverse body of artists and partners each year. Over the past 12 years, DOT Art has produced over 300 temporary artworks citywide. For more information, visit www.nyc.gov/dotart @nyc_DOT, @nyc_DOTArt
