Ongoing project
After the Rush documents everyday life in San Francisco through sustained observation of its public spaces. Referencing the city’s origins in the Gold Rush and its long association with ambition and labor, the project examines how movement, work, and routine shape daily interactions. Photographed at street level, the process carries a creative intoxication as each unscripted moment unfolds and then slips away.
Alongside routine activity, moments of collective expression – parades, festivals, and neighborhood celebrations – appear within the same shared spaces. These gatherings are treated as part of everyday public life rather than spectacle. Through accumulation, repetition, and timing, the photographs describe how the city is used and experienced, presenting San Francisco through lived presence rather than mythology.
