2Return to East Hastings Street, 2017
Hastings Sunrise became an anchor point to my exploration of the city. Whilst exploring, I learnt to rely on the cues of the urban trails. Vegetation weaved through the concrete that led me to open spaces or bodies of water.
Locals are dispersed by a similar fashion. In the west lie the ultra-rich, and, in the east, the less well off - not uncommon for a metropolis of this size.
Upon leaving, I virtually revisited; retracing my steps through online street views. Through an entirely alternative lens, I once again placed myself within the spaces I’d ventured - yet all that continued to surface were warped mirror images of what I’d already captured.
