Prospects / Los Angeles

When I moved to Los Angeles one of the first things in Downtown L.A. I noticed was the encampments of unhoused people in the shadows of the Bank of America skyscraper on Bunker Hill. I started to study the streets in an ever flowing process of change using black and white street photography as a method of documenting the city. The photographs refer to distinct characteristics of the processes churning in different neighborhoods of Los Angeles and asks questions about disinvestment, displacement, speculation, and the collateral effects of various stages of “urban renewal” and transformation.
