VACANT, ENTICING LUMINOSITY Opens 3/16 at Lesley Heller Workspace 54
by Tyler Peterson - Mar 5, 2014

Gallery 1: For the past nine years, Newbegin has photographed vacant spaces of leisure, travel and transitional occupancy. All of the spaces she photographs are deeply informed by traces of the human activities that take place in them, but only remain in the evidence left behind. The architecture of these hotel rooms and movie cinemas, hold a stifling sense of deadness, as if they were already a museum, acting as a conduit into a displaced time.
