Becoming... T, 2008, 4-channel HD video installation, colour, sound, 12:15
(3 min excerpt)

Becoming... considers architecture and changing urban environments. The video installation juxtaposes traditional views and housing styles with the radically new designs appearing in four major urban centres, Vancouver, Montreal, Toronto (Canada) and Berlin. Jokes focusing on professional practitioners are interspersed amongst the city views. Distinct sound from each urban centre accompanies the four videos.
In each of he four individual works that comprise Becoming..., every shot is a fixed camera frame that presents a dialogue between old and new elements of the built environment in each of the four cities. Each shot suggests juxtapositon unique to these locales.
