Reflection and Flow Meets Alex Salazar

Debby, Virginia and I dropped by to visit the Alexander Salazar Gallery last Tuesday.  We wanted to get a sense for what our public display venue would be like.  Virginia had known Alex previously and was already familiar with his gallery space.  We were surprised to learn that long ago his location was once a popcorn shop!

Alex graciously made time for us, even though he was in the middle of installing an upcoming show (and perhaps a thousand other things).  Charming, animated and creative, Alex was the perfect host.  Even though our visit was brief, our conversation with him left us feeling excited and motivated.

The images below come from the footage I shot during the visit.  I'll be posting videos from my interview with Alex, along with his conversation with Debby and Virginia about using the space.

Note to self: always carry the wide angle lens and tripod with you even though you don't think you're going to use it.
