Sara Ludy’s video montages, Space Portraits, shows uncanny space through explorations of modernist architecture. While wandering through various architectures, Ludy photographs her journey while focusing on elements that resonate a sense of place. These photographs are later composed into an animated slideshow of transitions, evoking the liminal space between time, memory, and place. Transom is a space portrait of Market Station in Leesburg, VA. Historic buildings were uprooted and relocated to form this commercial complex in the 1980's.
