Scott Oshima
'This is the only access Barrio Logan has left to their bay:over the freeway-- navy ships, the bridge,ghosts of fisheries and canneries.I am looking for a particular ghost: a Japanese Americanfishermen’s village before the forced incarceration in 1942.'Tierra Abierta / Open Country is a poetic auto-ethnography in the Barrio Logan neighborhood of San Diego. Through photographs, interviews, and reflections on everyday life in the shadow of gentrification, artist Scott Oshima explores the zone where space, memory, and erasure intersect.
