A Study of Mimicry

A Museum of Mannequins: A Study of Mimicry considers New York City spaces that are traditionally and newly seen as commercial by raising the oddities of inconspicuous spaces’ grandeur. 

This set of images acts as a museum to strange moments in these common spaces of interaction and connection, many of which do not contain people but are meant to copy some visual aspect of reality, yet they miss something essentially human. 

 I preserve and collage corners of the New York City landscape by capturing what was torn off the wall, pinned to a cubicle, modeled in a storefront, and surrounded by smartphones.
