“The Street Becomes” is the resulting project of a residence as a Smithsonian Artist Fellow in 2014. This body of work explores the changing character of the urban street in times of war and peace.
“The Street Becomes” is entirely based on archival images. One part of the images comes from the private archives of local Washington DC photographers who documented the Latino Festival during the 70s and 80s. The second part comes from the US Marine Corps archives and documents the American military occupation of Central America and the Caribbean in the early 20th Century. An artistic intervention on these source images suggests new meanings for the street and examines the kind of contests that are predicated on overtaking and controlling public spaces.
