PASSAGE & hOURS
Savernack Street presents our first show of 2015:
j.frede : Passage January 17-March 11 Opening: January 17, 5-7pm
Savernack Street 2411 24th St, San Francisco, California 94110
A collection of Twenty-Four time-lapses featuring an hourglass as the subject changing locations with each new beginning, our constant makes its way through a full days time before beginning again. The complete film lasts one hour. Upon viewing time accelerate past we cant help but contemplate our perception of our own time and its pace.
About the gallery: Savernack Street is a in the Mission district of San Francisco that exhibits site-specific works experienced as the encounter/event of one peering through a reversed peephole. Outside looking in: a voyeuristic lens.
This gallery functions as a floating facade of collapsible binaries; both marked and unmarked, interior and exterior, Savernack Street is accessible to anyone on the street 24 hours a day and yet rigidly boundaried-- rejecting entrance, forcing limited perspective. The peephole, an analog live security camera originally invented to create a wider view for assessing the safety of strangers, here, when activated, renders the gallery itself as insecure.
Savernack Street is created/curated/directed by Carrie Sinclair Katz.
