An ongoing series of photos documenting moments of day to day life in my hometown.
Berlin 2015
I went to Berlin to paint but found myself unable to stay inside. And so began my walking in the city. I found myself mapping my walks with photos and the non stop barriers of Berlin’s constant construction zones became my first subject and preoccupation. A symbol of the ever changing city, gentrification and development. They also literally presented as blocks or directives - walk here/do not walk here. The red and white stripes- a bold graphic statement, interrupting the flow with authoritarian presence and announcing danger if one should transgress the barrier.
