Right before my residency and exhibition at IS Projects in Fort Lauderdale began, I was informed that the FAT Village Arts District would soon suffer the same fate as many of the subjects of my previous works. I wanted to take this opportunity to document the unique and rich sites that soon would be replaced by clean, towering structures devoid of history. I explored the area during quiet times, capturing the images that grabbed my attention. I transferred the photos to solar plates through the Florida sun, and overlayed the images during the printing process. No Need for a Postcard is a series that describes a future that we may be creating. Are we erasing what makes an area interesting when it is finally recognized for its value?
