Placeholders is a project of three books about digitization and globalization by way of clothing and body movement.

Tate Shaw: "'The Placeholders' is a series of film-like photobooks of small ambient moments in immense cities. They often show the city as made of people and their movements through it. Volume 1 is multi-directional and uses the book's gutter as the stairwell entry and exit of New York subways."
