Artwork
Please note

Sorry, we don't have images or video for this item.

A restrained, observational study of the groupings, gestures, and postures of people who gather to form temporary communities in the city. People are observed gathering for entertainment, for commemoration, for debate and contestation, for celebration. The city is seen as a shifting flux and flex of momentary comminglings.
