Swivel Gallery is pleased to present Public Work, Joseph Cochran II’s second solo exhibition with the gallery. The exhibition showcases a new body of work by the artist that explores photography not only as a mode of documentation, but as a social practice — a tool of resonance. The focus of Public Work roots deeper than the practice of image-making, it rather reflects a sustained inquiry into how photographs can operate in response to civic life, echoing through the social field and becoming part of its texture. Through nearly a decade, Cochran has developed a practice attuned to how public life is structured, sustained, and strained, delving into its nuances in a studious manner to investigate how photography can intervene in that space.
