Mapping 3d / animation / AR app / installation
This project, developed through research and direct interviews with construction workers, investigates the transient, relational nature of a construction site. Set against shifting plastic sheeting, its elements—replicated and digitally altered in 3D animations on gypsum screens—blur the boundaries between the virtual and the tangible, creating a continuous, looping transition.
Rooted in the processes of gentrification, the work highlights how laborers become increasingly disconnected from their environment and from broader social dialogues as development progresses. Through this lens, the project examines visibility, the valuation of labor, and the evolving interplay between community, space, and human presence, reflecting the lived experiences and embodied knowledge of the workers themselves.
