Objects on the Sidewalk (Montréal) 2024


Documenting discarded household items on the sidewalks of Montreal, this series of photographs captures transitional moments, embodied by briefly erected monuments appearing just before garbage collection. In these objects, the artist sees a change in someone’s living situation to which she is familiar. While the objects cannot tell the whole story, they communicate a sense of loss or melancholia, liminality, and the accelerated pace of change in urban settings.   

Inkjet prints, various sizes.
Production assistant: Roxanne Ross.
