The JSI's Executive Director, Barbara Bestor shares: "James Florio has used photography to take us on an adventure of discovery [...] Collaborating with the architects, Florio reveals the slow and experimental process in the making of unique architecture and landscape disruption."
The opening reception and celebration of these three awardees will take place on April 22 from 6-8 pm PST. "On Light, Time, and Materiality" will be on display at the BAG from April 22 to June 3, 2022.
