Transport and transit mean everything. Commuting determines our schedules. It's important to live in a well connected place.

Walking boots for the miles ahead

Although commuting in New York City is mostly done through using the trains, shoes and their comfort remains an important asset for all.

Restricted Access

To access this garden (when it is open) you need to go through a metal detector gate and risk getting searched.

And the process goes on

The three stages are part of many more that have either passed or are about to become. We are always in the process of completing or beginning another stage. Progress is made, lost and regained.

The motion never stops.

Lost in the maze

Operating the urban maze it as first practically impossible, but over time one learns strategies and actions of coping.

Liminal space 

The time we spend in transit is a big part of living in contemporary society - based in its urban and suburban centres and commuting through the spaces in between. This shot is literally a documentation of a less extensive journey (walking in between building levels), but metaphorically it stands for all our passages/journeys and the reflections that come with them.

The floor is lava

Our distinct interactions with the architectural environments that surround us often have an early onset. Words and lines become play, we use our bodies accordingly staying within or crossing the borders. Environments win, humans always lose.

Installation view Ruskin School of Art Bullingdon Road Building

Exhibiting my photographs from New York City on sheets of plexi and accompanied by witty text in vinyl print was an allusion to advertising and all the catch phrases or stereotypes connected with New York City. The resulting 'alley of photographs' was represented my perspective on visiting and working in NYC as an immigrant from Poland living in the UK and then travelling to yet another country.
