Labor of Liberty, 2021 - cont. has been installed on the wall of my studio space since November 2021. During the quiet hours, the sounds of the gears and motors moving every second and the one minute mark clunk of the clock were amplified. The sound reminds me that a manual punch clock is an antiquated object and is not commonly used in the workplace anymore. In bringing nostalgic feelings of the experiences of my grandparents migrating to Canada, I discovered a Solari Board. The board provides an intuitive understanding of illusion and disillusion of arrival and departure destinations. The sound represents the anticipation of travel, the same anticipation I felt when I was getting closer to achieving my American dream of migrating to the United States.

Unordinary Itinerary is a Split-Flap Display board that displays every entry and exit of the United States of my Form I-94 and programmed every entry and exit in the United States onto a Raspberry Pi to drive a series of circuit boards and motors to display lines of text over and over again rotating every 30 seconds.
