That’s the Way I See It:

Miami’s Public Art through a Unique Lens

By Robin Hill

That’s the Way I See It: Miami’s Public Art is an inspiring tribute to the city's vibrant public art scene, captured through the imaginative lens of acclaimed photographer Robin Hill. For decades, Hill has documented Miami’s iconic public artworks, uncovering the dynamic relationship between the art, its surroundings, and the communities it enriches.


This stunning hardcover features fifty standout works from the Miami-Dade Art in Public Places collection, celebrating the 50th anniversary of this pioneering program that transformed the city into a vast outdoor museum. At the heart of the project are Hill’s abstract, playful photographs—created through intentional camera movements—that imbue each work with a sense of spontaneity, energy, and freedom.


Each artwork is paired with Hill’s witty, thoughtful reflections. His short narratives, infused with humor, personal anecdotes, and moments of discovery, make the book as engaging to read as it is visually captivating. The journey begins with insightful essays by Robin Hill and architecture critic Alastair Gordon, framing the larger significance of Miami’s public art legacy. A full-spread map invites readers to experience these works firsthand, turning the book into a gateway for adventure across Miami’s diverse neighborhoods.


Designed and published by Miami-based EXILE Projects, That’s the Way I See It is more than a book—it’s a vibrant celebration of creativity, place, and community. This first edition is a must-have for art lovers, urban explorers, and anyone inspired by the transformative power of public art.
