“In the world of super modernity people are always, and never, at home.” - Marc Augé

The link between the individual and place in contemporary urban life is displaced. The concept of place has been replaced with that of non-places; a site of placelessness and liminality. The work deals with the ways in which we situate ourselves in this new landscape: where the near and the elsewhere are interchangeable and where we navigate our sense of place through signs and text.
