waking up (for the first time), 2024
installation, 4 channel, 37 minutes on loop. color & B&W. 5.1
waking up (for the first time) is an audiovisual experiment that reconsiders footage of a film-in-progress as a place-based, multiscreen installation. In dreamlike tableaus of everyday city life, Brooklyn-based artists explore practices of spirituality and reflect on meaning-making with reverence for the quotidian observations that make up our ordinary lives.

Since 2018, Designer Max Friedman and I started to journal the neighborhood of Crown Heights in Brooklyn, NYC. The 260 page book explores concepts of home, dissimilation, coexistence, an everlasting sense of change, and how these themes can transform a small neighborhood into an artifact of preservation.
