Better Days
Digital collage
"A composite of Miami’s brimming cityscape in its earlier days. The story of a city is told through its culture and community, shaped over decades by its built environments. My vibrant depictions of neighborhoods, infrastructure, and landmarks each tell a different story. They document time and place and the abundant spirit of a city. The vivid and amassed imagery showcases what makes each locality unique and recognizes what we have accomplished and what we have yet to achieve. I portray the wholeness of places as they are while piecing together nuances of human behavior, habitat, and change. They capture moments of nostalgia, adversity, and the celebration of our tenacity. Understanding how place and culture intersect through our built environments, allows us to understand ourselves, our issues, and how to persevere."
