6 Feet Apart #6845

Artists Statement: This typology investigates the ubiquitous ground markers directing people standing in line to keep 6 feet apart to prevent the spread of Covid-19. These markers are often just a single piece of tape adhered to concrete and distressed from months of being stepped on. Read More.

Curator’s Statement: For three years now COVID has directly affected our lives. Initially, it forced us to stay indoors and to treat our normal world with fear and dread. Now that the disease is more normalized, and we feel more confident to resume social activity, how do we conceive of the world outside? How has this recent history, our new fear of this disease, affected our lives and our perceptions? These are some responses.

A preview of “Through Line,” opening at @bedfordga 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.

Deena Qabazard @deenamachina
Sam Soon @samsoooooooon

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.

> jurors, Janet Delaney @janet_delaney, Omar Farah @omarjasonfarah, and Jonathan Mark Jackson @_jmjackson, thanks!

A teaser for my upcoming show at Bedford Gallery t A teaser for my upcoming show at Bedford Gallery this January.

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.
