GRAVE ARCHITECTURE (2011-2014)
Grave Architecture is an ongoing body of work that explores relationships between the contemporary American landscape and global economics in the 21st-century. These images of abandoned and foreclosed subdivisions throughout the fifty US States are excerpts from an automated, two-channel 35mm slide installation. While most of the text/image pairs are truthfully matched, the installation is automated to periodically go out-of-sync and skip forward and backward. The installation is programmed as a 30-minute loop.
The remaining interrelated components of Grave Architecture include a four-channel 16mm film, a series of fifty 16x20” photographs, and an installation of two thousand postcards.
