Gunpowder Communique
Scott McMahon + Ahmed Salvador
September 6 - 27, 2025
Gunpowder Communique documents the decades-long collaboration between artists Scott McMahon and Ahmed Salvador, a correspondence created through mailed parcels, chance operations, and controlled detonations.
By sabotaging film and photo paper with light leaks, drills, and explosives, the artists push analog materials to their breaking point, resulting in images that are as much scars as they are photographs.
Opening Reception & Artist Talk: September 6, 6-8:30 p.m. register
Closing Reception: September 27, 6-8:30 p.m.
