During fall, 2012, I was recording subway trips around NYC.  During spring, 2013, I picked a short journey from one station to the next in Queens and began composing permutations.  There are fragments of familiar songs and occasional memories of other subway trips, fireworks, the ocean.  The Tunnel: How to Get From One Place to Another began as a formal experiment and became something about ambition, desire, and faith.

Shalom Gorewitz is a trailblazer in the field of video art, a medium he has explored since its inception in the 1960s.  As one of the early practitioners of this evolving art form, Gorewitz has used video as a tool to merge personal introspection with sociopolitical commentary.  His work is characterized by a unique combination of experimental techniques, thematic depth, and a painterly approach to video that challenges conventional storytelling.
