about metroposthesia:
"the metroposthesia project explores the city as a living palimpsest, where architecture, nature, and traces of daily life intertwine. through multiple exposure photographs, each scene unfolds as a poetic assemblage, revealing unsuspected details and buried narratives within the urban landscape. familiar forms are deconstructed to better suggest tipping points: between balance and metamorphosis, between the constructed and the vegetal, between the past and a future in the making. this layering of moments invites a fresh perspective on the issues shaping our shared spaces and subtly questions the evolution of the city and its possible futures, whether tinted with utopia or tension. far from being mere documentation, metroposthesia engages in a dialogue between the textures and colors that form the fabric of the city. through this interplay of reflections and cropping, the project offers a contemplative experience, sparking reflection on our relationship to the living, to the environment, and, more broadly, to how we inhabit and transform our common spaces."

any favourite in there?
oh, and in case you wondered: yes, we are eventually going to catch up and reach back to 2025, but it might be 2026 by then...!

besides project @structure.of.collapse , which has so far only been showcased online, the #metroposthesia project has truly been my chief "montreal-era" art series, and was featured in several solo and group exhibitions in and around the city. as i work on developing new tools for exploring visual interconnections, you'll likely start to see an evolution in these images in the coming year.
the current pictures are "works in progress" in the sense that integrating the series is a slow assessment of each of the hundreds of individual works, of which only a few survives. you get a glimpse of them here, but most will disappear. some might receive additional treatment, as it is currently very minimal.
here's a project statement:

• days of doubt [1/3]
a panoramic picture
and a poem from 2017:
There are clouds of sound and noise
That utter thoughts in a muffled voice,
Gestures of hands simply won’t cast out
Cloudy skies in days of doubt.
Like strangers lost in a crowd
Whose cries are buried by the loud,
The loud din of helpless wanderers
Whose presence disrupts and disturbs.
All strangers left on their own,
Islands floating out in the fog;
Orphans with cruel fates to bemoan;
Fates that are swept under the rug.
And who's looking with interest, who reaches down with an arm,
Never so eager to help, neither too late nor too soon?
Who would make this world perhaps a little more warm
And freshen the skies of our cloudy afternoon?
— December 2017.
