Market Street Art In Transit - Home
Every year four artists were selected to create six designs (four posters each for a total of 24 posters) that were displayed in the triangular kiosks located on Market Street between Embarcadero and Van Ness Avenue. The kiosk poster series provided an opportunity for artists to reach audiences outside of traditional art venues such as galleries and museums.

Building on her Better Homes and Gardens project, Wilson designed six posters in 2002 for the San Francisco Art Commission's Market Street Art in Transit Project. The posters displayed the word for "Home" in six different languages that reflected those predominantly spoken in the South of Market, Tenderloin, financial and Civic Center districts: Tagalog, Vietnamese, English, Spanish, Chinese, and Arabic.
