ATLANTA – The Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority (MARTA) public art program Artbound has unveiled a new mural by artist Kevin Bongang at Kensington rail station on the East/West Line. The piece titled Boundless is featured on the north side of the station.
Bongang was selected as part of phase two of Artbound’s Black Artists Matter series inspired by the Black Lives Matter movement and the call for racial justice and equity. Phase two also included artwork at Indian Creek Station that was completed in January. Phase one was done in partnership with Decatur Arts
Alliance and featured artwork at East Lake and Avondale rail stations last fall.
