Description of book: Landscapes, all shot on 35mm film, that represent the literal and abstract. Shot from the ground and a Cessna Plane, almost entirely in Utah with single images taken in California, Nevada and Wyoming. It was shot between 2010-2013 and was the inspiration for my Time of Nothing series, which I ended up releasing first through a series of exhibitions (Solo exhibition at Martha Otero Gallery, Los Angeles, 2013, Museum of Contemporary Art Utah Biennial 2013 and A Thin Place group exhibition, Berlin, Germany, 2013).
The best thing about self-publishing: It was great to collaborate and work with my very talented close friends.

Book Soundtrack: Although this song is about the region of the US that is considered “The South” it was always apart of my mixes while traveling through Utah and the additional locations during the period I shot this project.
