The Elevator Project The Elevator Ride, video work The Elevator A site of strange encountersUnusual coincidencesNear escapesDangerous accidentsOr a sudden maliceIt is an entrance and an exit,It is a place for a resolutionand a place of conflictA box of paradoxAt the intersection of time and space.Spaces of possibilityCauldrons of social discomfort… Artist StatementMy artwork explores themes like, migration, transcendence, and departure. For this project I started with silent observations inside various elevator, I would ride for hours and take notes of my observations and experiences. Eventually I installed my self with a camera and tripod in an engineering building, this elevator had the most traffic of people and the light and space inside, was ideal for filming.https://vimeo.com/166021426
