The work

About this work

Pale blue and white water opens between dark blue, gray, and ochre boroughs. A fine white street network follows their edges, crossed by thin red painted marks. Around the harbor, broad blue strokes extend into the lower half of the image, giving the water as much presence as the land. The bright channels make the city's divisions clear while the street lines suggest the many journeys that connect its separate shores.

The city beneath the stories

A map from The Distance From Here.

A painted map served as the navigation surface for The Distance From Here, connecting its four original oil paintings to the geography of traffic violence. These artist-selected map prints extend that work into a series on paper.

Without crash markers, attention shifts to the city itself: its intricate streets, divided shores, and connections between five boroughs. Find a familiar neighborhood, follow a remembered journey, or see the shape of the city anew.

The painted language comes from 258 Feet from Here, 1,104 Feet from Here, 1,924 Feet from Here, and 3,504 Feet from Here.
