For most people the real dwells on the edge of a hyper-reality created by media technology. We live in a world besieged by signs devoid of meaning where a constant interplay with simulacra is the predominant experience. Technology has shaped another kind of nomadic existence full of voids. Void can be thought of as a space where anything can happen. It is a screen that allows the projection of thoughts and emotions, as well as being the space of nothing. Landscapes of transition closely relate to the idea of voids or depictions of void, even if people, objects, and sounds inhabit them. Landscapes of transition and spaces of transition are at the periphery of our dwelling (dwelling as inhabiting and duration) as they are also at the center of contemporary living, working, thinking, and feeling.
I consider the locations I investigate as territories at the “edge of,” or on the threshold - moving toward or away from somewhere or something. It is a qualitative condition of the in-between to be fleeting, unnoticed, and ephemeral and, as such, in-between spaces are made clearer when experienced than explained. I examine the in-between to gain a better understanding of the globalized world with which I interface. The new spaces that I produce through my works are meant to question general perceptions of how one observes the space defining the environments through which one travels and inhabits. The works, by asking questions that address the “edges or peripheries of,” become a critical means by which the perception of boundaries relating to marginality can be changed or altered.
