Defenestration: To throw out of a window
Abandoned four-story building in a neighborhood that historically has faced economic challenges and endured the stigma of skid row status.
Everyday objects flood out of the window like escapees out onto available ledges.
Simple, unpretentious beauty and humanity of the falling objects: similarity with the Cuming Museum objects coming out of the archives.
Throwing out becomes an uplifting gesture of release: an inviting reflection on the spirit of the people that live in the community, the objects they encounter and the places they live in.
