Roadworks (2021) is an ongoing series analyzing the United States's reliance and relationship to the road and as a car nation. From Eisenhower's promise of ideological unity with the inception of the Interstate system, to the road (and automobile) as a symbol of progress, expansion and (Westward) mobility, Roadworks seeks to take these idealized road sentiments and mythos and contextualize them in the contemporary moment: questioning our reliance to the road as we are in the midst of an ecological reckoning largely fueled by fossil fuels.
Billboards takes viewers on a fabricated road loitered with 50 billboard advertisements (one from every state), the advertisements feature screengrabs from each state, moving from East to West, taken in Google Earth.
