A long tunnel deep in one of New York City's subway stations in now the city's most informal therapy couch. Thousands of Post-it Notes line the white-subway-tiled tunnel connecting 6th and 7th Avenue. Each note has the thoughts, aspirations, fears, jokes, or doodles of a subway rider. All are part of a participatory art project called 'Subway Therapy.' The project is the brainchild of artist Matthew Chavez. "People will walk up and spend one minute and come up to me and say, Wow, this is amazing. This made my day. This made my week. I really needed this," said Chavez, Danielle Guy was visiting from Alabama and said she stumbled across the project while transiting the subway. "I put that 'I choose kindness even when it's hard' because I've had a hard time wanting to lash out whenever I've been treated not so awesome by some people recently. And it's easy to want to be mean back, but being kind is the best thing to do," said Guy. Chavez, who first started the project in 2016 days after President Donald Trump's victory over Hillary Clinton, said while the project isn't intrinsically political, putting it up after the election elicits a lot of political notes. "This project is not a reaction to the election, but because it invites people to express how they're feeling at the time that they're feeling it. Certainly, the context of the election influences what people write about," said Chavez. Notes range from "OMG why Trump," to a picture of crying eyes, to "My GF butt." Chavez keeps a notebook full of the notes that most intrigue him. One reads: "I forgot the sound of your voice." "There's a story here and I don't know what the story is, but I find ones that really make me think about what someone's going through....they're so arresting," said Chavez.
