Terrain Vague

Terrain vague is defined as an urban, empty or abandoned space in which events have taken place. It’s deceptively free, available, and unengaged. Think of an abandoned library or an empty lot between two houses. What is to be done with these enormous voids, with their imprecise limits and vague definitions? In these overlooked places, the present is obfuscated by the memory of the past. Within a futurism context, I seek to expand on what terrain vague can be—to  reflect on potential meanings of non-places and its people. Through recycling, cutting, piecing, reconstructing, and collaging, I take up the task of contributing to futurisms’ speculative terrains. (special thanks to Terisita C)
