Off Shore

Paul Cesewski, Constance Hockaday, Marie Lorenz, Chris Sollars & A People's Archive of Sinking and Melting

Off Shore

Abandoning the limitations of solid ground, five artists create new projects considering the boats, creeks, nautical communities and very edges of San Francisco. Through off-site excursions and gallery-based installations, these projects bring historical waterways to light, celebrate a space for outsider communities and imagine the possibilities of water as an expanded territory.

With a calendar full of walks, celebrations, lectures and performances of all varieties, Off Shore makes full use of the Bay Area’s numerous – and often unnoticed – waterways. Participants are invited to partake in the artists’ research, join in excursions and enjoy the liberating thrill of large-scale events.
