Thinking about urban sprawl creates two distinct thoughts in my mind. The first is the nature of the congested space in a city, and the accompanying feelings of claustrophobia and lack of personal space. The second idea is the cycle of a city, from construction to destruction and back again. The city is an organism, always growing and changing. New things are always being built, and existing structures are always being renovated. My visual work is a partial wall of collected bricks, with the solitary image of a nude human female printed on the surface of the bricks. The figure could either be emerging from or dissolving into the bricks, suggesting this cycle of change. My work for "Some Space Between" is a personal metaphor for the role of humanity living within the boundaries of a city being torn down and built up at the same time Robin Assner |
