In Queens, Cass Waters reimagines Fitzgerald’s Valley of Ashes for the modern city. Instead of smoke and soot, it is the invisible weight of noise pollution that erodes daily life, pressing in from highways, train tracks, and airport peripheries. The diagonal composition converges at the ear of the figure, amplifying the relentless abrasion of sound as both a physical and psychological burden. With her signature balance of grit and lyricism, Cass transforms the stark industrial sprawl into a meditation on belonging, isolation, and resilience, revealing how even in landscapes scarred by decay, lives persist and home endures.
