Built Different - Gina Gaiser
2026-04-03 - 2026-05-09 | Manna Gallery, 473 25th St., Oakland, CA, 94612, United States
Manna Gallery presents Built Different, a black-and-white photography series by Gina Gaiser that examines the logic embedded in the urban landscape. Focusing on brickwork, graffiti, industrial surfaces, and architectural grids, Gaiser isolates fragments of the built environment and reframes them as studies in repetition, contrast, and form. Stripped of color, the images emphasize structure and rhythm, allowing overlooked details to surface with clarity. When assembled, the photographs converge into larger visual systems, revealing order within what might otherwise register as visual noise. Built Different reflects on construction in multiple senses, of cities, of environments, and of perception itself, proposing that heightened attention to pattern and geometry is not deviation, but insight.
