Dan Funderburgh's artwork "SHOAL" celebrates the journey between home and away and the flow of people, history, and identity throughout Long Island. Ocean waves cover three walls of the station house, featuring ocean buoys and flotsam of Lenape pottery shards and beads, and a flow of North Atlantic sea life in an imitation Delft pottery style. In addition to original patterns inspired by traditional ceramics, certain tiles also feature local icons such as the Jones Beach water tower, historic Bellmore station, and the nearby marinas. In addition to the mosaic ocean waves, Miotto Mosaic Art Studio fabricated Funderburgh's elaborate design emulating hand painted glaze by digitally printing on ceramic tile and waterjet cutting the forms of native fish and crustaceans. These techniques are a marriage of traditional aesthetics and craft with modern technology and materials.
