Heritage Residential Cultural Sites
Photography
2020
Heritage Residential Cultural Sites is a series focused on the heritage residential cultural landscape properties found in my hometown of Mississauga. This series explores these properties and the spaces they exist in and the way we interact with them. The diptychs are representations of the spaces, while still alluding to the structures themselves.
“Heritage Residential Cultural Sites is a series focused on the heritage residential cultural landscape properties found in my hometown of Mississauga. The interesting thing about these properties is the way that they are kept up, thought of, talked about, and used in almost the same ways as the city parks, greenspaces, curated, and natural landscapes though are completely man made.Inspired by the Anthropocene, a geological period determined by humans and their impact on the earth and climate, this is about the way the way that the community has accepted these human made structures into our “natural” landscape. Therefore this series explores these properties and the spaces they exist in and the way we interact with them. The diptychs are representations of the spaces, while still alluding to the structures themselves. ”
