Reggie Burrows Hodges: Hawkeye

Step into a world where memory moves, shifts, and lingers with Reggie Burrows Hodges: Hawkeye—a visually stunning exploration of time, motion, and personal history by Reggie Burrows Hodges. At the heart of this captivating volume is a single, powerful image: a tennis ball frozen mid-impact, stretched and warped in motion. But in Hodges’ hands, this isn’t just a moment from a game—it becomes a gateway into memory. Through his signature use of negative space and deep black grounds, scenes unfold like fleeting glimpses of the past, suspended between observation and emotion.

Drawing from his childhood in 1970s Compton, California, Hodges builds a visual language of tiled floors, patterned robes, tennis courts, and everyday interiors. These elements appear soft, hazy, and almost dreamlike—capturing the way memories feel rather than how they look. Moments blur, meanings overlap, and the line between documentation and personal experience begins to dissolve. “Hawkeye” reflects this tension—borrowing from the precision of sports technology while echoing something more intimate, like a parent watching over a child. It’s a poetic collision of surveillance and memory, movement and stillness, clarity and emotion. Fully illustrated and rich with atmosphere, this book invites you to slow down, look closer, and experience the beauty of moments that never quite stand still.

See the motion. Feel the memory. Step into the in-between.
