Crackpots, energy oligarchs, and corporate lobbyists far and wide publically rejected the notion of global warming the moment they witnessed winter’s first snowflake, leading the scientifically minded to rebrand what we are now witnessing on a global scale as climate change. These mixed media combines are a proposal for yet another rebrand, reflecting the severity of our contemporary dilemma. How would we reassess and self correct our ecologically vicious consumption behavior if the moniker of EARTH DEATH was adopted?

This photo essay is an ongoing investigation of the business quarter of East Liberty and the surrounding neighborhoods making up Pittsburgh’s East End, an area that has gone through several dramatic cultural and economic shifts throughout its 200-year history. My objective is to offer an alternative narrative to the story of East Liberty's recently acclaimed economic and cultural upheaval over the course of the 2010’s. My intention is that these photographs serve as a historical document, perpetuating an ongoing conversation in our community regarding social and economic issues impacting the area, namely inequitable urban planning, gentrification, classism, institutional racism, geographic segregation, consumerism, and corporate capitalism. My hope is that these images will provide evidence of these ailments, and will help to prompt more conscious and inclusive urban redevelopment moving forward. From an aesthetic standpoint, I employ several presentation and compositional formats. Namely, these include formal before-and after diptychs, image pairing, historical tableau-inspired scenes, formal portraiture, documentation of inanimate objects, and serial imagery. In doing so, the reveal includes stark contrast between pre and post development, depictions of community members in relationship to the built environment, visual metaphors, and imagined narratives.

This is an attempt to create a series of analog visual maps of my online social network. I used a data pool of 26 millennials—25 close friends and myself—and investigated our digital connectivity to one another through basic data mining of available friend lists and following lists on image-dominant social network platforms. These subjects were then further analysed in smaller social circles of 1 to 5 individuals. This project has three essential visual components, a portrait, a network map, and a metadata grid. The intention of this project was to reflect on the greater millennial experience, investigating themes of social connectivity, smart phone use, isolation, and data collection in the new digital age.

These images depict the recent infiltration of technological infrastructure across Pittsburgh's landscape. These antenna systems, known as base stations or cell sites, include both receivers and transmitters, blanketing the area with a wireless telecommunication grid. To me, these images are of Orwellian obelisks, information gatekeepers, vessels of immense power and knowledge in the 21st century.
