This Is An Art Project Of Unfolding Possibilities, Guided By Imagination. It Is The Experience Of A Place In A Moment With Narrative, Sound, Video And Words
The Romance of a Place
We are walking maps-present, past, future, existing all at once. The project started as a means to reorient myself in a place of disorientation. We are always in moments of transition, we trace our movements, we try to make sense of events, we try to find our place (home). In time of introspection, I found myself seeing, observing and experiencing moments that interested and romanticized me. What started as a project to heal my heart became a project of love, to fall in love with the present in the form of inspiring and magical vignettes. Love letters from me to you. The path of healing takes many routes, there is no right way to heal, it is a matter of experiencing, living, and allowing yourself to feel. This is my map and in part it is yours as well, how often do we find ourselves in moments of complete disorientation and the urge to feel centered again?
Each pinned site has a corresponding video, photograph, sound piece, or words. The pinned sites are meant to be interactive and viewed on a cellphone at the specific location (align your phone to the view captured). These moments are private thoughts and reflections in public places to blur the line between internal and external, invisible and visible. To experience is to understand.
You will need the map, a cellphone and headphones.
This is an ongoing project currently in Manhattan, New York but will also be in San Diego and San Francisco, CA.
