A tile lemur sits on a shelf-like design at NYC's 81st St. subway station.
A lemur made of tile is seen on a tiled wall at the 81st St. subway station in New York City. The lemur is made of small pieces of gray, tan, brown, white and black tiles pieced together to create the animal that looks like it's sitting on a shelf with its left feet gripping the outer edge of the shelf. The head is on the left, with its thick, curled tail on the right. The tiled animal has big black eyes for its small head and tiny ears, it is looking down to the left. The tiled line that is supposed to look like a shelf holding the animal is made of rectangles and squares of shiny black tiles. The animal's tail partially covers the 1 in the "81" tiles below. The background wall is made of shiny cream-colored tiles. A long fluorescent light is seen reflecting off the tiles directly above the black line of tiles.
