2021 Show: Volkslivin

Volkswagens have been a part of my life since I can remember.

Some of my earliest memories are of my father, a Vietnam era vet, in his deep green 1971 VW bug rolling on the streets of Philly. I remember this beautiful bug as the family car for our small growing family, perfect for road trips. Through the years, it acquired many miles and embedded itself in my mind as a car for the people: an affordable utilitarian vehicle–with character. This van was replaced 10 years later when my parents got divorced by my stepfather’s frosted blue VW bus. While living in New York City, Volkswagens took a hiatus in my life. But after moving to Venice, California, the resurgence of these multicolored boxy beauties was overpowering–I saw them everywhere: parked in front of my home, sleeping on the beach, rumbling along on the Pacific Coast Highway, and lying on random LA streets. Whether a Westfalia, Kombi, or a Samba, these adventure wagons have a unique beauty that I love to capture.
