urban portraits
Urban Portraits: Chicago is a series of paintings depicting popular scenes in the Chicago area prior to and during the revitalization of the city during the early to mid 1990’s. Most of the subjects represented in Urban Portraits: Chicago no longer exist. They are being presented one last time prior to the next wave of urbanization/gentrification. Shown are images of a city going through yet another rebirth however, it must be noted that with this rebirth we must lose images of the past: architecture, colors, sounds and all other things we encountered on a daily basis but took for granted.
