ABOUT THE BRIDGE PRINTS
“On the day of the Loma Prieta earthquake (October 17, 1989) I had just begun commuting from San Francisco to work at Fantasy Records in Berkeley. Thus began my long-term relationship with the Bay Bridge. The quake caused the collapse of a 50-foot section of the upper deck and led to the death of a 23-year-old woman. I was fortunate not to be driving home on the bridge at the time of the earth- quake, when I could easily have been returning to San Francisco. I spent that night in Berkeley with a friend since the bridge was closed to all traffic, and would remain so for several weeks.
Twenty-four years later, on September 3, 2013, a wondrous, white, single-span was set to replace the damaged eastern section of the bridge. On the day before the eastern span was closed forever and the dismantling began, I drove across that compromised structure for the last time. As I shot video from the car, a feeling struck me on a gut level: it was the start of a new era for the geography and landscape of the Bay Area — and the beginning of the end for an iconic structure that would soon cease to exist.
From then on, I took photos with my iPhone whenever I drove across the new eastern span, adjacent to the closed cantilevered section, documenting its gradual deconstruction until it finally disappeared. Using a special transfer process, I incorporated those images into a series of monotypes.”
--Deborah Sibony
Printmaking, and monotypes in particular, continue to be Sibony’s passion. The process inspires experimentation and has a spontaneous nature that appeals to her. She takes photographs, which she uses as a starting point for an idea. Combined with the monotype, she uses a variety of mark-making methods, photo transfers, ink, drawing, staining, and painting, each assimilating a progression of ideas. Color, line, and form take shape, and the landscape is transformed, weathered and distilled, transporting the viewer to a place that is familiar, yet unknown, reflective and engaging.
