is made up of photographs that capture viewing panels of construction sites in New York City. In 2013, the city instituted a law in which the emerald green plywood walls surrounding each site required a square, diamond, triangle or circle cut out of it in order to provide transparency to passersby. Images of overgrown weeds seen through hazily graffitied plexiglass, chain link fences and metal bars and remnants of human presence behind these makeshift “windows”, urges viewers to investigate these boundaries, and stop to look deeper into something that blends into the landscape of the everyday.

Construction sites are a space of dismantling and rebirth. These photos are markers of a time and place, taking a final look at the space between destruction and regeneration, between neglect and luxury. While the viewing panels are a small part of the development of the city, the repetitive nature of the photographs speaks to a much larger story about transformation in New York. Photographed at various stages of demolition and construction, the viewing panels become portals to the boundary between public and private through the obstruction of the wooden walls. They become voids: the erasure and envelopment of space.
