Art Description
“Roderick’s House Before Airbnb” is a visual commentary on how space is transformed under the logic of capitalistic commodification. This photograph acts as a visual palimpsest, where layers of history, personal narratives, and identities intersect with the new stories of the market economy. It not only documents the architecture but also highlights its shift from home to product. In the realm of contemporary art, this work critiques the phenomenon of short-term rentals and their impact on urban communities. It encourages reflection on the value of space, not merely as a physical structure but also as a vessel of cultural and social meanings. The photograph serves as a visual essay that delves into the tensions between home and market, personal and universal, as well as past and present.
