Break the Ton
Baby Grand, 161 Lafayette St. (at Grand), NYC, 10013
Opening Party Feb. 22, 7-9 pm
Two long and skinny backlit digital collages: one is a muscle car racing at you with steel factories smoking in the distance; the other is a series of portraits of foreclosed homes in Cleveland, in time becoming urban farmland.
Break the Ton refers to driving over 100 mph.
These collages share a brief narrative of the past, present, and future of Cleveland’s landscape: the assuredness of the good old days, empty homes a product of dying industry and a shrinking city, and the future of my hometown as a model and leader in urban farming.
