Points of View


Points of View is a series of ‘faux windows’ using large flat screens displaying simulated real time of urban and natural continuums intermittently interrupted by vicious cycles of violence. The ‘windows’ function as clocks in that each have 24 scenes that change on the hour. The installation involves multiple ‘windows’ from varied locations. This project was shown at the World Financial Center, in New York City in October 2009.
