A SELF PRESERVATIVE STEP BACK TO SAFETY

I was invited to participate in a collaborative one year project with artists from Parsons the New School in New York City in 2007/2008. We engaged in a visual investigation of both cities as both insiders and outsiders. We collaborated for months at a time via email and blog. a self preservative step back to safety was my final installment, pulling together text and images from all aspects of the project, it makes both the oceanic horizon of Sydney and the gothic horizon of New York appear equally intimidating for entirely different reasons. They are both beautiful and sublime, overawing. step back.
