SF Photobook Fair

Saturday, October 18: 11 AM – 5 PM

Sunday, October 19: 10 AM – 4 PM

The amazing Harvey Milk Photo Center will host over 30 tables of publishers and vendors selling and promoting photography books, magazines, and zine publications during this free, two-day weekend event. I will participate with other BAPC photographers including Alison Taggart-Barone and John Martin.

I will be presenting a prototype edition of my ongoing book project 5 Years, 6 Feet Apart, a photographic and essay-based exploration of the symbols and markings that defined how we navigated public space during the pandemic. Developed through exhibitions and conversations with curators and writers, the project brings together images, text, and research around the emotional and spatial residue of those temporary instructions.

It includes 5 sections of images that turn my installations into a book form. It includes my own writings as well as 2 essays by contributors:

“The Aesthetics of Peril and Panic” by Renny Pritikin (Formerly the chief curator of The Contemporary Jewish Museum in San Francisco)
“Lines, Loss, and the Gravity of Time“ by Christopher Lee (a medical epidemiologist focused on global epidemic and pandemic preparedness, detection, and response)
