No Turn on Red is a companion piece to Avenue S (housed on www.ghostcity.com) and continues the metaphor of streets and roadways. Avenue S began during the early days of the pandemic and has grown to over 500 pages since then. It is a net art project filled with animations and photographs that captured my feelings and impressions during times of isolation as well as my visits to nature and documentation of anomalies and urban graffiti. I continually photograph what catches my eye and have tried to develop a poetic narrative that conveys the journey into and out of the pandemic.
No Turn on Red is conceived of as a metaphor and a meditation on the notion of standing still when wanting to be in motion. It stems from the frustration of sitting at a red light, waiting to turn right but not being able to because the sign says, No Turn on Red.
These connected web pages are designed to illustrate these ideas.
Jody Zellen is a Los Angeles based artist who works in many media simultaneously. She makes animations, interactive installations, app art, net art, drawings, paintings, photographs, public art, and artists' books. She often thinks about ways to use new technologies and to integrate interactivity into her artworks. While Zellen's work engages with technology, she also still makes things by hand. To that end she draws and paints, as well as creates animations and augmented reality experiences.
