DESCRIPTION
WHAT’S DOWN THERE, ANYWAY? When you ask someone to name things they’ll probably never see in their life time, most people think of exciting places far away. But there’s plenty to be utterly ignorant about within just a few blocks of your house. Ever walked down a street in your neighborhood, gazing at the structures and objects you’ve seen for years, and realize you probably won’t ever get to see the inside, behind, or underneath them? You can know every brick, every stone, maybe catch a glimpse through a window, but the truth is, you’re unlikely to get the full picture. ever. What's really under that manhole? Or the sidewalk? What does a telephone pole look like from directly beneath? Strata examines unknowns that are within arms reach, but always worlds away from us.

YOU MIGHT GET LUCKY AND GET A GLIMPSE WHEN ONE IS OPEN. USUALLY
A MASS OF WIRES AND A LADDER LEADING DOWN. WHERE DOES IT GO? ARE
THEY JUST FOYERS, MUDROOMS TO CLEAN OFF YOUR SHOES BEFORE YOU
ENTER SOME ONE’S CAVERNOUS HOME? ASK THE BUTLER IF YOU CAN COME
IN. HE’S THE ONE WEARING AN ORANGE VEST AND A HARD HAT. HE WILL

WINDOWSAH WINDOWS. BIG DEAL, YOU CAN JUST LOOK THROUGH THEM, RIGHT? BUT WHAT ABOUT THE LITTLE
ONES ON THE TOP OF OLD HOUSES — TOO HIGH TO REACH, AND ALMOST ALWAYS COVERED WITH
DRAPES AS ADDED PROTECTION. WHY ALL THE SECRECY? AND WHY WINDOWS ON ROOMS THAT ARE
IMPOSSIBLY SMALL, TOO SMALL TO HAVE A MAN — SIZED DOOR TO ENTER THEM?
MAYBE THEY HIDE SOMETHING DARK; STIFLING ATTIC OUBLIETTES TO PUNISH NAUGHTY CHILDREN
CENTURIES AGO. OR MAYBE, THEY LEAD TO OTHER HOUSES IN OTHER PLACES, THAT ARE MANY
TIMES LARGER FROM THE INSIDE THAN THEY COULD EVER BE FROM THE OUTSIDE.

WE’VE ALL SEEN THEM BEFORE. SOLIDLY BUILT BUT TOTALLY NEGLECTED, NONDESCRIPT
YET FESTOONED WITH SIGNS WARNING US TO KEEP OUT ON PAIN OF PROSECUTION. WHAT IS
IN THESE ODD, LOCKED BUILDINGS? INDUSTRIAL SECRETS? STEAM AGE MACHINERY FROM A
BUSINESSES’ SALAD YEARS? MAYBE INDUSTRIAL RECORDS WORTH MILLIONS TO THE RIGHT
PEOPLE. OR MAYBE IT’S SOMETHING FAR MORE USEFUL.. LIKE THE PERSONAL ORACLES OF
SUCCESSFUL CEOS, KEPT PRISONER IN PLUSH BASEMENTS UNTIL NEEDED TO PROVIDE PRE-
DICTIONS ABOUT STOCK MOVEMENTS.

OLD HOUSE ON THE CORNER IS SIMPLY FILLED FROM FRONT TO BACK WITH DOORS — OPEN ONE, IT
LEADS TO ANOTHER, AD INFINITUM. OF COURSE, EACH ONE NEEDS A SEPARATE KEY.

WHAT’S DOWN THERE, ANYWAY?WHEN YOU ASK SOMEONE TO NAME THINGS THEY’LL PROBABLY NEVER SEE
IN THEIR LIFE TIME, MOST PEOPLE THINK OF EXCITING PLACES FAR AWAY.
BUT THERE’S PLENTY TO BE UTTERLY IGNORANT ABOUT WITHIN JUST A
FEW BLOCKS OF YOUR HOUSE.
EVER WALKED DOWN A STREET IN YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD, GAZING AT THE
STRUCTURES AND OBJECTS YOU’VE SEEN FOR YEARS, AND REALIZE YOU
PROBABLY WON’T EVER GET TO SEE THE INSIDE, BEHIND, OR UNDERNEATH
THEM? YOU CAN KNOW EVERY BRICK, EVERY STONE, MAYBE CATCH A
GLIMPSE THROUGH A WINDOW, BUT THE TRUTH IS, YOU’RE UNLIKELY TO
GET THE FULL PICTURE. EVER.
WHAT’S REALLY UNDER THAT MANHOLE? OR THE SIDEWALK? WHAT DOES A
TELEPHONE POLE LOOK LIKE FROM DIRECTLY BENEATH IT?
STRATA EXAMINES UNKNOWNS THAT ARE WITHIN ARMS REACH, BUT ALWAYS
WORLDS AWAY FROM US.
