October 22 - November 19 Opening Reception: October 22, 1-4pm (Curator Walk-Through at 2pm) Meet the artist: Saturday, November 5, 1-4pm Minnesota Street Project 1275 Minnesota Street, SF, CA 94107 (map) In this BAPC group show, I will exhibit 8 images from my new series 6 Feet Apart. See more on Instagram. 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. This photographic method of collecting, sorting, and classifying is a reflection on the scientific processes we are relying on to fight this pandemic and also the tedious nature of many of the life changes we have had to endure. New information becomes apparent in the context of these groupings. Contrasts and similarities reveal beautiful variations as the eye tunes into this minimal landscape. This detached documentary style offers an opportunity for viewers to reflect on the quiet moments as well as the irony of working together by staying apart. 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.
