This work shows a collection of very private views on a public space: the urban landscape. The intimacy of these outlooks lies in their point of view: windows of apartments on sale. Each view is unique, belonging to an apartment and its residents.
It is a journey through Manhattan and time, outlooks and insights, collected on weekly walks over a period of 13 weeks. It is both, a photographic survey and a study of housing typologies. A series of 88 images informing about the real estate market in the city, comparing apartments, showing their associated view and their respective position in the city: a new supporting way of advertisement as opposed to today's sale through newspapers, internet and brochures? What is the value of a location, an apartment, a view? I would like to call it MyHATTAN.
