Artist Statement
Build Your Own Cities is a stationary interactive work intended to open a dialogue about land use, development and place through playful involvement. Visitors create their own vision of domestic development atop the sawhorse reconstruction of a pool-speckled neighborhood: each person reimagining their own occupation of place.
