Since 2008, Queens Crossing Mall brought the community different kinds of Christmas art installation every year. It also becomes a tradition in Flushing area that the Christmas season will begin after the lighting ceremony of the Queens Crossing Christmas tree. This year, Queens Crossing and Crossing Art held the open call for the design of the Christmas installation and the artist Mark Salinas\u2019s idea, X-mas X-ing, is selected among all submissions; he used his inspiration and imagination to put the road signs into 3D sculpture. On Dec. 9, Monday, the organizers will invite famous Taiwanese singers and local celebrities to join the lighting ceremony.<\/p>\n

XMAS X-ING (Christmas Crossing) is a temporary outdoor holiday sculpture created by Mark Salinas based upon photography of pedestrian crosswalks and other road markings taken while walking in Queens. These flat, urban road markings will be translated and assembled into white, green, and red 3D structures revealing a surprising Christmas scenario of pine trees, a ladder, wreaths, ornament bulbs, and snowy picket fences. At its tallest point the structure will reach 20\u2019.<\/p>\n

ARTIST BIOGRAPHY:
\nMark Salinas (b. 1973) is a Designer based in Sunnyside, New York. He received his BFA in Sculpture from Washington University in St. Louis, an AAS in Fashion Design from Parsons School of Design in New York City, and his certificate in Tailoring from Central St. Martins in London. After 12 successful years in the Fine Art, Film, and Fashion industry, Salinas launched his own design and fabrication studio, Arrows Up, in 2007, specializing in retail window displays and marketing props. His roster of notable clients includes Adidas, Chanel, Macy\u2019s, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and The National Kidney Foundation.<\/p>\n

Even while designing for others, his Sunnyside studio is kept busy with community beautification efforts, artist residencies, and creative collaborations.
\nSalinas has been awarded a Queens Council on the Arts Visual Art Grant both in 2010 and 2013 for community beautification projects. \u2018Partly Cloudy in Sunnyside\u2019 recycled 300 discarded umbrellas, which were littering the neighborhood streets, into 300 re-usable tote bags filled with coupons and swag solicited from local business owners. \u2018Rise-n-Shine\u2019 was a community-supported mural done in collaboration with the Sunnyside\/Woodside Boys & Girls Club aimed at eliminating graffiti on a problematic corner in the neighborhood. In 2011, he represented the USA at William Grant & Sons\u2019 Glenfiddich Artist in Residency International Program in Dufftown, Scotland where he lived and worked upon the distillery ground for three months. These works resulted in a 2012 solo exhibit at Chambers Fine Arts gallery in New York City aptly named \u2018NYC: Ceilidh\u2019 and featured live Music, Sculpture, Costumes, Story-telling, and Performance Art inspired by life in the Highlands. Recently, Cit\u00e9 Internationale des Arts in Paris awarded Salinas with a 2014 Visual Arts Residency & Exhibition for his directorial debut of an evening-length dance production.<\/p>\n
