In the CityStreets wavering through curtains. Figures walking within blurred contours. The repetitive rhythm carved by building skeletons. And the succession of tiled roofs dyed in sunset.
Before being an accumulation of solid structures, the city is a place through which someone's gaze passes. Landscapes viewed through windows, boundaries extending from private space to public domain, outlines bleeding in memory. Inside the word "city" with its hard resonance, individual gazes, daily movements, traces of bodies seeking their place layer upon themselves.
"In the City" approaches the city through memory as a place inhabited. The world spreading beyond curtains that block the view, faint presence of people, time dwelling within repetition born of structure. Not the city rising as an overwhelming presence, but another form of the city that continues to quietly intersect with someone's life.
As if viewing through boundaries, as if placing ourselves within repetition, the works guide us toward—memories of a city that, though inorganic, is certainly lived.
