The ideal venue would be an art gallery at reasonable cost or commission on sales but other exhibition spaces are acceptable. I'm an exhibited and published photographer in Asia and North America. My work has been exhibited in Hong Kong, at San Jose Museum of Art and juried-in by the Director of Artist's Gallery, San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. My images have been licensed by Lonely Planet, the largest independently-owned travel guidebook publisher in the world, for their publications. Lately, I have spent more time on documentary photography, exploring the inner cities and the plight of the homeless, migrants, peace movement, rural China, to name a few of the many worthy causes, hoping to raise people's awareness. I have volunteered my documentary photography for non-profits on this board including the Alliance for Smiles, Public Allies, AIDS/Lifecycle, etc. Here is a link to the Virtual Tour of my recent Solo Exhibition in DC Area in Feb 2008 on documentary photography of an emotional and thought-provoking trip to spotlight projects of The Zigen Fund for grassroots development in China.

Abject poverty, discrimination, social exclusion, digital divide...

The project is exploring interdisciplinary collaboration on the theme of Desire. The space is a beautiful theater (with lots of cool nooks and cranny's for projection and sound) on Mission and 11th (where the old Jon Simms used to be housed). We are exploring the theme of desire through a range of artistic mediums. At this point we really need someone tech savvy since we are experimenting with sound recordings, video design and projection, and lighting. I am looking for someone who wants to be involved and give creative input as well as a tech expert. We are using: Video, digital images, alternative lighting and performance. The work is process oriented with a culmination of a performance and/or installation. We are having lots of fun exploring and plan to have a performative installation the weekend of May 15th-17tth. Rehearsals are Mondays and Wednesday from 3:30-6:30pm. I would prefer one person committed from now until mid May, but there is a possibility to combine a few people if your schedules don't permit full attendance. There are 6 of us who have been working since mid January and we are now at the stage where we would love a technical junkie/artist to join us. Are you interested and/or available or know someone who is? This is a volunteer project. We have no funds at this point but I do plan on paying someone to run lights/sound/video during the actual show and tech week. I look forward to hearing from you and please please pass this on to someone who you might know who is available...
