My work is concerned with the discordance between the perception of the urban structure as unchanging and infinite and its actual temporal finitude. Via travels throughout the alleyways and other discarded areas that transect the urban landscape, I attempt to circumvent the façades that belie architecture's temporal existence and access sites marked by disintegration and corrosion.
The structures that are documented for these works are not selected as such because of a past history but, rather, because of their future history, which is readily alluded to in the visible scrapes, corrosions, and disintegrations marking them. These marks become signifiers of the passage of time, containing records of each moment which has passed by in the lifetime of the structure while, paradoxically, being themselves, subject to the momentariness and impermanence of all things.
