Residency
Thanks to the Seattle Storefronts Project, I have been using the cavernous back portion of an empty storefront in the Pioneer Square district of downtown Seattle. The space is shared with Youth In Focus, a non-profit organization that provides free photography classes to disadvantaged youth. They have the front and I have the back. The back space is huge and it is a real treat to have so much room to shoot.
Here is a little tour-
I recently hosted a First Thursday to my co-worker D.W Burnam and he put together a show featuring his New Yorker friend Anthony Vitale, Brad Winchester and some of his own rarely seen work. Next First Thursday will be curated by Miss Sierra Stinson who puts on shows called Vignettes in her modest apartment every two weeks.
I will continue to use the space through October. The timing for this residency couldn’t have been at a better time. Last month I secured my own workspace. It is just and empty room but hopefully I will have my newly acquired studio in Georgetown ready to go so my move will be seamless.
