Shandor Hassan's site-specific installation, in Street Road’s former mushroom farming house, is a meditation on American production and automobile cultures. The work consists of recycled materials from rural Pennsylvanian metal and auto recycling plants. This large scale American wasteland-dreamscape reflects upon a collective folk-roadway, American cultural memory, and diminishing American idealism.

​Born in Los Angeles, California in 1968, Hassan lives in Brooklyn, NY. He works in the media of photography, installations, found materials and furniture and building. He holds a BFA in Photography from the University of New Mexico, was a Fulbright scholar to Hungary (2008-2010), a NYFA recipient (2016), and a NYSCA recipient for the Québec Arts/Exchange Residency (2017). He participated in the Istanbul Biennial in 2005 and the Budapest OFF Biennial MUSEUM in 2015 and was a faculty member of the International Center of Photography from 1999-2008. He has been exhibiting in New York City and internationally since 1995 and will be in residence at ZK/U Berlin, Germany in the Fall and Winter 2017.

In connection with The Dust: American Matter, Hassan has been awarded a 2019 Pennsylvania Partners in the Arts / Greater Philadelphia Cultural Alliance grant to develop public programming and a publication.

This includes documents of the installation process at Street Road, locations from which materials were collected, photographs from the environment of Pennsylvania roadside culture, and the general landscapes that surround Street Road, including its nearby small towns and rural spaces.

DIRECTIONS
to Street Road
 here. 
to The Little Free Library here.

A word about 'here':
We acknowledge that we are on the ancestral lands of the Lenape, original people of the mid-Atlantic area, forced west by British and US governments. Most Delaware Indian tribe descendants are now located in Oklahoma, Wisconsin, and Ontario. Lenni Lenapes in Pennsylvania are not officially recognized as tribes by the United States, though an estimated 5000 Lenape Nation descendants live in the Delaware River area. We pay respects to the Lenape people both past and present. Please consider the many legacies of violence, displacement and settlement that form part of our collective histories. While increased public recognition of these legacies and processes of redress such as Canada's Truth and Reconciliation Commission are positive steps, concrete focus on return of land and land rights remains a distant horizon.
