“I wish I could just project everything on the paper.” Patti Smith

With Paper, artists were invited to submit works that explore the creative potential of this ancient and timeless material. Whether used as a surface, substrate or sculptural element, paper must be a central component of each piece. The exhibition includes a wide range of techniques—drawing, painting, printing, folding, sculpting, collaging, sewing, binding, and beyond. Paper challenges the artists and viewers to rethink the boundaries of paper. How far can it be pushed, transformed, or reimagined? At what point does paper cease to be paper?

“Tenderloin Poem” is a handmade accordion artist book composed of seven hand-cut paper images. Inspired by the Tenderloin neighborhood in San Francisco, it unfolds as a visual poem, each panel a quiet witness to moments of presence, fragility, and resilience.

Translated from photographic observation into drawing and cut paper, the work explores the interplay of light and shadow, absence and form. Through its rhythm of unfolding, it reflects on the complexity of place where hardship and humanity exist side by side, and where even the most fleeting traces insist: we are still here.
