For over 10 years I have been studying and documenting the changing street level face of New York. My mixed media sculptures recreate the disappearing storefronts of the city. Ever increasing rates of gentrification and urban renewal have done more than just tear away the facades of small "mom and pop" storefronts, the very soul of the city has been threatened by the displacement of long time residents and communities.
