I find these fascinating: taking the consciously-ignored and putting it on a plinth; they also suggest a future moment when these carts and workers are a thing of history.
From Specter:
"The four pieces are specifically aimed at street workers to honor the art in their work and themselves. Placing the sculptures in parks, squares and underpasses that are crossroads for the general public and street workers allows viewers to celebrate the worker’s elegance and determination."
