"The Piano" (2020)

I took this photo in February 2020 on the ferry between Seattle and Bainbridge Island. You can see the Seattle ship docks in the background as the ferry leaves the Seattle port, which are to the southeast — with bright afternoon sun streaming in from the west. 

It was taken in the last weeks before the pandemic lockdowns — nothing remarkable about it in the moment, but it became almost immediately nostalgic. This ferry commute is an iconic and quintessential part of daily life on the island.

The exhibition that this was shown in in fall of 2021 was one of the first on the island — after vaccines became available — and it was poignant to show this photo of one of the last days of the "before time."
