Sixteen Journal

Apr 2025

Sixteen Journal explores the intersection of cinematic history and archival materiality in "They Named It Twice." The editorial series features a collection of photographs by Mark Mahaney that document historical film equipment, archival ephemera, and iconic filming locations. Through the use of analogue film and long-exposure techniques, the work captures a range of textures from industrial machinery to urban nightscapes. The visual narrative relies on clean, monochromatic compositions and desaturated tones to emphasize the sculptural quality of its subjects. Each frame is presented with a white border and specific typewritten captions that anchor the imagery in its historical context, leaning into a nostalgic and moody aesthetic across the editorial medium.
