Los Angeles-based artist Henry Taylor has brought summertime to the High Line with the floaters. This large-scale mural is an adaptation of a self-portrait of Taylor and a friend “blissed out” during a relaxing swim in Palm Springs, exhibiting simple and leisurely happiness. The mural has been painted on the side of a building on West 22nd Street near the High Line so visitors in both the park and the street below can view this artwork. Everyone is excited for this addition to the High Line, including Cecilia Alemani, the director and chief curator of High Line art, who says that “Taylor brings us into his own personal circle in Los Angeles of neighbors, friends, and idols. His use of color and method of arranging shapes elevate the everyday into another majestic realm. With the floaters, Taylor brings a slice of laidback West Coast living to the bustling streets of New York City.”
