South Bronx Sagas, in private collection
Using images from the street, 19th Century land-marked architecture and found materials, this work exposes contradictions inherent in recent history, time and change. 21st Century signage, Bronx poetry and rubbings from plaques merge with photo transfers and drawing posing the past against the restored, regenerated present.

In these images of rapidly disappearing Hudson River structures the veracity of photo-based transfers of architectural and structural remnants are fused with collage, drawing and discarded materials such as broken dry wall. The work is concerned with time, change, and construct layered images of architectural change as a precariously ordered balance on the edge of entropy.

Drawing and collaged images of resonant historic structures are meshed with found materials. Text is sometimes used as a structural and iconographic element constructing and deconstructing layered images. "The ruptures of history and accumulated catastrophes have made the ruin a witness, not to the past but a paradigm of the present."
