This haunting black-and-white photograph, titled Urban Drift, captures a striking double exposure that blends urban decay with quiet resilience. In the foreground, a large boat—unnamed but tagged with graffiti—sits inexplicably on land, parked on a city street in front of an abandoned building. Layered over this image is a glimpse of life on the margins: a makeshift floating camp on the Willamette River, composed of small boats and a patched-together dock serving as an illegal shelter for the unhoused.
Superimposed across these scenes is the gritty texture of the city, graffiti-covered walls, chain-link fences, and high-rise buildings receding into a forested horizon.
The photograph juxtaposes permanence and impermanence, shelter and exposure. It invites the viewer to reflect on the invisible lives moving through the city's forgotten edges—lives marked by displacement, ingenuity, and endurance. "Urban Drift" is a quiet yet provocative meditation on survival, identity, and the blurred line between public neglect and personal reclamation.
