We are thrilled to announce Seasons 05: Alex Delapena & Patrick Gookin ANCHOR POINTS

Opening: Saturday, October 18th 6:00 - 9:00 pm

Anchor Points brings together two artists who understand photography as a recursive space where physical action and observation converge. Alex Delapena and Patrick Gookin use the camera to probe what remains of the medium’s descriptive power when gesture becomes material and material becomes subject.

Their work creates a dialogue between object and translation, fabrication and distortion, clarity and doubt. The images appear as notes rather than resolutions; tracing something coherent within systems built to fail. Anchor Points hangs in the balance of what gives and what holds, revealing forms that insist on being seen.

Historically, land has been wielded in the service of power for exploration, extraction and conquest. The advent of the camera legitimated this speculation and capture with the click of a shutter. But, can photography rupture this cycle and reconnect us with the endangered ecologies that surround us?

This group of artists propose radical geographies, rendering land as a politically charged locus of negotiation, mediating the site of their environs with the sight of their camera to posit questions about our ontological connection to the landscape and envisioning new ways of stewarding it into the future.

Francis Almendárez’s installation, “To let go is to arrive” is presented as part of FotoSoCal.
