Photographic print, magnets, and paint
2007
This work was derived from a series of short interviews conducted on the corner of Woodward and Mack/MLK. Each person was asked the same 2-part question: “Do you live in the city of Detroit? Why or why not?” Responses from some of the interviewees inspired stories that branch off and weave together. The result is a visual depiction of interdependence that is familiar to many Detroiters.
