PASSAGER / by Terri Loewenthal

this image was commissioned by SFMOMA to document the first of david wilson's 2012 SECA project arrivals, a series of six self-guided journeys to outdoor sites throughout san francisco.

the 16-foot drawing nestled in the presidio depicts frog woman rock, the spectacle that marks the beginning of the end of the journey to our handmade house.

here it is in the film flesh.

 

and here are a few favorite vignettes of the opening ceremony that took place on september 14, 2013 (plenty more here).

the drawing will remain in the presidio until november 22, 2013. it's an amazing thing to stumble upon, and an even more amazing destination. 

i am thrilled to share what happened when sam, felix and i embarked on the journey.
