Bountiful LIC Memorial Carpet is a cast cement sculpture that was commissioned by Socrates Sculpture Park in summer 2007. It pays tribute to the manufacturing and architectural history of the Long Island City neighborhood in Queens where the park is located. Many of the forms are based on products that used to be made in local factories, some of which have only recently closed. Examples of some of the forms: electrical components, bread, Model T bodies, ice cream, batteries, staplers, Pepsi bottles, biscuits, even the trim for Big Bird's legs. Infrastructure and architecture are also referenced in railroad tracks, trolley poles, docks, elements from the demolished Bodine castle, and cement silos.
