Construction/Demolition/Salad (2016 – ongoing; collaboration with Fred Schmalz)
Construction/Demolition/Salad juxtaposes found images of hotel construction and demolition with photographs of salads being prepared and presented. The project speaks to the perishable nature of hotels in social and political urban development. Contemporary images of salads parallel the life cycles of hotel buildings themselves: architecturally, as products of labor, as façades of opulence and conspicuous consumption, and as impermanent objects.
