6 Feet Apart @ Transmission

Transmission Gallery San Francisco
35 Bartlett St., San Francisco, CA 94110 (map)
Fridays – Sundays, 1-6 pm (viewable 24/7)

February 17 – March 26 — EXTENDED TO APRIL 9, 2023
Opening Reception: Sunday, February 19
Closing Reception: Saturday, March 25

 

I will present a grid of 6 Feet Apart images as a window installation at this wonderful gallery near my studio in the Mission. The installation includes a large banner and a series of smaller images on the sidewalk, outside the window display, and trailing up and down the street. In the gallery are framed and unframed prints. Also a limited edition sticker set.

There will be 2 other concurrent solo shows in the gallery: Lynn Beldner and Steve Briscoe. Next door is the work of Jerry Barrish.

The gallery writes “On the one hand they are visually compelling abstract elements, on the other, stark reminders of the anxiety and anguish that led to their ubiquitous placement around the city. While the intensity at the height of the pandemic period had a tremendous impact on our collective experience, these markers remain as evidence and yet fade into routine and unremarked elements, easily dismissed as one traverses the city, now at times bumping shoulders with passersby along the street.”

Installation at Transmission Gallery, SF, 2023

A preview of “Through Line,” opening at @bedfordgallery Bedford Gallery in January with @bapcsf - curated by @artalatrinca

This work began nearly ten years ago, with photographs made on train journeys. I've been returning to it recently, rethinking how it might exist beyond the photographs themselves.

For this exhibition, the panoramic images will be printed directly onto the gallery wall in horizontal strips, gradually taking shape over the course of the show.

I've been revisiting earlier projects and finding new ways to bring them into the present. It's been an interesting way to rethink the work and where it might go next.

The selected artists for FORECAST 2026 share an interest in the theoretical dimensions of photography: time, reality, and memory. Each artist brings these ideas into contemporary focus through formalist intervention, material investigation, and autobiography.

An iPhone, a moving train, and a panorama mode used wrong. THROUGH LINE is a mural printed onto the gallery wall strip by strip, so it keeps growing through the show. Hills repeat, foregrounds smear, diagonals break apart. It’s what travel looks like when the camera tries to keep up.
