The series Streets Have No Names explores collective memory through a layered visual language. On one side, it presents a series of defocused portraits of wartime “heroes” whose names have been given to city streets. On the other, it juxtaposes these with street profiles captured via Google Street View, revealing the contours of the urban landscape
This pairing invites reflection on the role of military memory within the geography of the city. It raises questions about what constitutes a street, not only as physical infrastructure but as a site of historical inscription and how memory persists or fades within everyday spatial experience.
