"Reconstructing" -- Portland, Oregon -- Archival Fine Art Print
This photomontage piece is inspired by the huge influx of construction and architectural changes in Portland, Oregon. There is so much construction, it feels like the city is trying to stay afloat from all the equipment. Through this work, I want to raise the issue of balancing new growth with preserving our history, retaining long-term residents, and considering the unique culture of Portland.
I walk the streets photographing Portland. Then I combine many photographic elements together. I can envision spatial connections along with location, cultural, and historical synchronicities and see how all these can be connected and juxtaposed in a single, cohesive, and meaningful scene.
