Description
Changes, Venice, 1984. 20 Yawl Street (near Pacific Avenue and Via Marina), rear alley garage door. An elderly woman pulling a cart of groceries is the central image in this commentary on Venice's continuing transformation as a community. Ahead of her, three young women in the modest swimming attire of an earlier era -- perhaps figments of her memory -- pose and wave in her direction. Behind her a roller skater approaches, not appearing to notice that they are about to collide. On the ground is a newspaper fragment announcing the eviction of local seniors from their homes. 8' x 12', by Thomas Suriya. Sponsored by owner. -- Dunitz, Street gallery, rev. 2nd ed., p. 191, #12.
