Holding to Remember
paz pereira-vega
2024
Holding to Remember is a visual meditation on how objects can embody the sacred act of remembrance and the enduring power of memory. Driven by the impulse to collect and to remember everyday objects by way of photography, this artist’s book explores the ritualistic act of holding these items close, revealing how they become vessels of meaning and connections to people and places once known.

The Art of Climbing a (Non-Existent) Mountain
Eric Francisco
2024
In The Art of Climbing a (Non-Existent) Mountain, artist Eric Francisco reimagines a climbing expedition on a mountain in its absence, a long-gone landscape that now exists solely through perception.
Combining photographs from a mysterious encounter with a mountain during a neighborhood walk and detourned excerpts from René Daumal’s novel Mount Analogue, Francisco explores the mystery in objective chance–synthesizing photography with Situationist concepts such as psychogeography and détournement to create a new (un)reality.

Plates on Plates on Plates
Christine Xia
2024
Plates on Plates on Plates is a peek into the artist’s phone folder of the same name. While mainly featuring vanity plates spotted in the wild, it also includes some standard issue plates, bumper stickers, vinyl wraps, and other car-related photos.
These roughly 250 images were collected over the span of two years and have been organized into a gridded catalog, grouped together by common themes and traits. Some of the artist’s favourite license plates are highlighted on two-page spreads that, when held open, are to-scale recreations of a standard 6×12” plate.
