This project involves looking for certain visual arrangements to express what I perceive as city dwellers wandering like zombies. I photograph city landscapes and capture strangers drifting through the space seemingly not noticing each other or the architecture surrounding them. I deliberately photograph people out of focus just enough to make you feel like you have seem them before while reinforcing the point that we rarely pay attention to individuals walking by.

The flow of the blurry figures visually expresses the muffled sounds of the urban environment and suggests the feeling of people swimming past one another. I played with the space between each figure to exaggerate the interaction of what I observe as pedestrians playing hopscotch along the sidewalk trying to sustain anonymity within the city machine.

This series is a work in progress currently including 50 images. These scenes are from London, New York, and Chicago reinforcing the universals present in urban pedestrian behavior.
