"Monterey Highway" at Seeing Things Gallery

Lost San Jose's Josh Marcotte has a new body of work called "Monterey Highway" that goes on display today at Seeing Things Gallery (751 West San Carlos Street). Josh spent a year documenting 30 miles of Monterey Highway in his own unique style. The road has a juxtaposition of old motels, neon signs, and empty storefronts as well as brand new housing projects and big box stores. Josh set out to "capture the spirit and identity of this road, and its place in the ever shifting landscape of Silicon Valley."

There is an opening reception for the new work tonight from 7pm to 10pm. To see some of these photos online as well as Josh's other collections, head over to the Lost San Jose website.
