Foreclosed, 2011

Foreclosed is a site study film produced by Chris Woebken in Orange, New Jersey, in 2011 for MOS Architects. Through slow drive-by filming, it records the neighborhood as a continuous passage through streets and buildings, inviting sustained attention to the everyday environment under consideration.

The film was presented alongside MOS’s proposal for Foreclosed: Rehousing the American Dream at the Museum of Modern Art in 2012. Led by Hilary Sample and Michael Meredith, the architectural project examined alternatives to prevailing patterns of homeownership and suburban development. Bringing the existing site into the exhibition, the film connected architectural speculation with observation of the place it proposed to change.
