SF Camerawork presents a pop-up series of lens-based projects by artists creatively responding to our current state of quarantine, curated by artist, curator and SFC member Victoria Mara Heilweil.
Today’s featured series is Project Viral by Rachel Liu. Life in the time of Covid-19 has changed many aspects of our daily routine, including what we perceive as valuable and indispensable items. Project Viral is a series of lumen prints where she utilizes disinfecting and sanitizing products, and safety objects such as masks and gloves, that we depend on daily to cope with the virus. Rachel has created works that reflect our collective neurosis in the time of the pandemic.
Rachel Liu, based in the SF Bay Area, is a visual artist working primarily with photography, alternative processes, and mixed media. She is the recipient of several prestigious awards, including First Place Single Image Winner of LensCulture's Inaugural Art Photography Award, and Julia Margaret Cameron Award for Women Photographers, Honorable Mention.
