Oakland Warehouse Project (Ongoing)
An effort to document Oakland’s red blooded artery of industrial history. In a city famous the world over for cultural diversity, radical politics, and a bustling port, the steel buildings of Oakland’s past are losing ground to the copy and paste condos of an intangible product workforce. This is my love letter to the the east bay’s industrial infrastructure. In rust we trust.
