The Project

Aside from intent to give exposure to the participants’ aesthetic abilities, this interactive exhibit intends to explore the meaning-making process, and discrepancies between messages received by viewers contrasted against the message intended by the photographer, as well as the interplay between the meaning connoted or suggested (suggested or inferred meaning) and denotation (literal meaning).

What the photographer saw

From the Series of images titled Velocity, chapter Traces. West 4th Street. I saw this on New Year's Day, the shoes left behind on the steps on the first day of the New Year. What happened? Where did the owner go? Vanished before getting home? It's a story unknown.
