STAIRS OF
SHOES

2021
Oil Paint on Plexiglass & LED Strips Variable Dimensions

The New York City public transit system (MTA) uses long, narrow advertisement dimensions, prompting the painted trajectory of the relationship beginning with shoes in New York City to Rome. The experience is that of an immigrant in a different environment, connecting visuals from that of their old environment to their new one. Climbing a staircase, the paintings are, one by one, illuminated by triggering motion sensitive light sources.
