The Phantom of Liberty

May 4 - December 30, 2018

Using materials that may last thousands of years, I have taken my own steps toward preserving some of the forsaken spaces that occupy the city I call home. My hope is to create dialogue about the path of underutilized urban areas, as our culture learns to navigate the concept of adaptive reuse and the growing tendency towards renewed urbanism. With the trend in capitalism being to simply erase our history and build something new, I believe that developing a conversation in which we reimagine the habitat we create and honestly investigate why we do so is both worth our time and vital to our survival. –David Allyn
