Neither solitude nor observation were strangers to me before the pandemic, and it took many months for the weight of quarantine to set in. In retrospect many months later, I am grateful for the removal of distraction during that time. For some change of scenery, I took daily walks in my neighborhood and was usually the only person on the street. Free of traffic, the streets were filled with dancing silhouettes and hundreds of sunspot images that changed along with the seasons and canopy coverage.

This installation of alternating scenes of light and shadow playing upon asphalt is a poetic representation of my process of deeply looking at the often overlooked. Videos are presented as diptychs to illustrate a sense of being caught by one fleeting gesture after another. Featured field recordings include the sounds of nature within the built environment of my neighborhood.
