What lives in the gap between a person’s surface and their interior? For photographer Steven Weisz, the answer lies in MA (間) – the Japanese concept of meaningful negative space. Through a series of hybrid works that move between photography, digital augmentation, and physical collage, this body of work locates the interval within the human face: in fracture, in shadow, in silence, in the barely visible seam of something almost whole. This is the story of how a concept became a practice and how a practice finally found its concept.

Jury-selected for Philadelphia City Hall’s Stories 250 exhibition — a portrait from Kensington asking what it means to belong to America. Free, June 8–Aug 8.

Philly Photo Day has always been an act of collective witness. Since its founding, the annual citywide event has invited anyone with a camera — professional or phone-in-pocket — to turn their lens on Philadelphia and submit a single image that captures something true about the city. This year’s theme, How We Stay Free, arrives in a charged moment: the nation’s Semiquincentennial, 250 years since independence was declared in these very streets.

Art Imagined Photography answered that prompt with One, Unseen — a digital composite portrait made in Kensington, one of the city’s most layered and complicated neighborhoods. The image is now part of the official Philly Photo Day exhibition at TILT Institute’s Project Gallery in The Crane Arts Building, on view through June 27.

There are museum visits that inform, and then there are experiences that move you — sometimes literally. On a bright April morning in Philadelphia, I packed my gear and made my way to the Simeone Foundation Automotive Museum for their April 11, 2026 Demo Day, themed “Carroll Shelby and the Rise of Professional Racing in America.” What unfolded over the next several hours was nothing short of a living history lesson, one told not in whispered docent tones but in the crack of throttle and the sweet sting of exhaust.
