Description |
In Streetworks (1998), Adams depicts a dynamic black and white street scene filled with people. This print, a proposal of sorts, might serve a purpose similar to that of an architectural model. It affords a point from which we might speculate on how particularly inventive structures can radically alter a landscape and its communities.
