Windows examines the idea of living semi-anonymously and semi-privately within a city. Working from photographs of open high-rise and apartment windows, the works are completely devoid of humans but not of their presence. I was struck not only by the lack of privacy afforded in city living, but by the disregard for what was in plain sight from the street below. A chandelier, bookshelf, or window planter created their story in my mind. Each window afforded a new fixture, color or temperature of light, styling and decorative choices. I have realized I am guilty of it too. I leave my windows open. I over hear my neighbor’s conversations through our all too thin walls. We are piled on top of each other in a confined space- therefore my life and their lives are intertwined. The windows examine the private moments we allow strangers to witness and invite them to share with us.
