Star Princess by Jeremy Kohm

Hello, collectors! It's Sara. I returned from vacation this week and I'm not gonna lie: As much as I like it here with all of you and team 20x200, I want to go back to Turkey! Istanbul, I love you! Sweet, cerulean Mediterranean Sea, can't we float along together, forever?

In the spirit of stowing away for just a little bit longer, today we present Star Princess by Toronto-based photographer Jeremy Kohm. Vacation via cruise ship is a strange phenomenon—you're captive, with a bunch of strangers, and none of the adventure of actually being on a boat. But, there's something so still and so mysterious—even Jeremy notes that "the tall and rectangular nature of [the boat's] structure seemed almost counterintuitive to the rules of buoyancy"—about this particular view of Princess Cruises' sweetheart that makes me think it might be nice if we could clamber aboard for just a day or night to see the sights.

For a summery escape a little closer to home (if you're in NYC), come see Jeremy's work in Dawn Till Dusk at Jen Bekman Gallery. Bask in the leisurely passing of hours as the shifting of light and shadow over landscapes and objects is examined in photographs, paintings and works on paper by 26 artists: Darren Almond, John Arsenault, Rachel Barrett, Robert Bechtle, John Button, Christian Chaize, Jorge Colombo, Amy Eckert, Candace Gaudiani, Derek Henderson, Todd Hido, Peter Allen Hoffmann, Jeremy Kohm, Michael Light, Michael Lundgren, Sally Mann, Klea McKenna, Sarah McKenzie, Stas Orlovski, Youngna Park, Ed Ruscha, Bryan Schutmaat, Mike Sinclair, Alec Soth, Esther Pearl Watson and Letha Wilson.
