THE
JUNCTION
KEEP
Illuminating the Crosswalks
The city moves fast — and so do we. It’s in the rhythm of footsteps, the hum of traffic, the quiet moments between chaos. Embracing city vibes means finding beauty in the noise, identity in the crowd, and inspiration on every corner. It’s not just a place — it’s a feeling.
Approximately two-thirds of all pedestrian deaths occur after dark. Although the SFMTA has implemented many campaigns to promote safety, none of their projects mention the importance of well-lit pedestrian crossings at night.
While the artists walk, they spark conversation with other pedestrians and offer an informative brochure with tips for pedestrian safety. By moving across heavily trafficked areas; The Junction Keep aims to raise safety awareness about the dangers of pedestrian crossing zones to walkers, bikers, and motorists.​

Laurus Myth debuted The Junction Keep in response to the rising number of pedestrian fatalities in San Francisco. She defines an intersection as a place or point where things join and a space of creation and destruction.
​
The Junction Keep is a mobile public sculpture that brings to attention the most deadly intersections in San Francisco. Designed to be mobile and run off the grid, a portable battery pack powers the LEDs while the “Junction Keepers” unfold the sculpture. Like a cascading fan, it extends as they proceed through the crosswalk.
