I am excited to be participating in this group show right in my neighborhood here in the Mission in San Francisco. This is a giant space that used to be a great clothing store (BetaBrand) that closed during the pandemic. The space has been “reactivated” as an art gallery with two large spaces in front and many smaller rooms in back and in a loft. it’s a big space.

I will exhibit 4 images from my Rapid Express series. These images are “linear panoramas” taken from moving trains and other vehicles, they visualize the way travel distorts our perceptions using a unique type of spatial and time-based warping. Foreground and background receive distinctive treatments—as do vertical, horizontal, and diagonal lines.

West Oakland. A preview of “Through Line,” openi West Oakland. 

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.
