Chicago is the city where I grew up. It's on this pavement where my foundation was laid. I didn’t set out to make a document of the city, I was making these pictures because the locations had unique characteristics, they were mostly inaccessible to the public. Through these unique perspectives, I was able to capture images that reveal vulnerable, exposed portraits of Chicago’s iconic skyscrapers. Monolithic and omnipresent structures. With the evolution of construction and changing landscape, these images are a document of my time in this space for just a brief moment. While this work presents my time there as an observer, I’ve felt that I’ve also created a document of Chicago over the last decade from a new perspective.
