“Cities are a product of time...Through the material fact of preservation, time challenges time, time clashes with time: habits and values carryover beyond the living group, streaking with different strata of time the character of any single generation. Layer upon layer, past times preserve themselves in the city until life itself is finally threatened with suffocation…”
-Lewis Mumford
This series is an expression of my instant reality and my dealing with memories and curiosity. I am a city born. I have become these streets. Passing through ephemeral moments, I use photography to understand the limits of my inquiry for answers to the question of what it means to be human; our urban existence and human existentialism in an artificial landscape.
The paradox that loneliness and identity can coexist with the density of mass population in these spaces are the reasons for this work. The mince of modern problems from an old world.
