Exhibition Statement

The low and constant drum of North Milwaukee's Construction has overtaken a once quiet community. A walk along the square is met with the ringing strike of hammers, a sea of orange cones, and an atmosphere of disruption. A symphony of destruction. This photo set highlight the hidden beauty of a community in transition. Capturing the evolution of Logan Square in this project is an attempt to showcase the charm of this beloved neighbourhood amidst the discord.

By highlighting the contrast between the shifting landscape and the emotion of this changing environment, this project seeks to shift perceptions of what it means to find harmony in a seemingly disordered landscape. An area’s ongoing development is a layered showcase of both hope and humanity. As you engage this living project, consider reframing how you bear witness to the timeline of construction. Hold it as an opportunity to be inspired by the uniqueness of this atmosphere.
