This week's edition: Paul Adams


First Light, First Day, Bonneville Raceway, Utah
Paul Adams

The Bonneville Raceway, on the Southwest side of The Great Salt Lake in Utah, is several miles long and consists of hardened salt deposited by the lake. In the Spring it floods and then slowly evaporates leaving behind pure white, perfectly smooth, concrete-like salt.

Catalog Edition: Tim Melideo


RV Park, Salton Sea, California
Tim Melideo

From the series Desert Dystopia. Marketed as a playground for the rich in the mid-twentieth century, Southern California Salton Sea aspired to become the next French Riviera. That dream was buried decades ago after devastating floods wiped out the area's thriving yatch clubs, chic motels and fine dining establishments. Undaunted by the now polluted sea and desolation, its current residents, largely RVers from the North, enjoy the dirt cheap cost of living and year-round sun.

Catalog Edition: Matthew Brandt


Alcova Reservoir, Oregon
Matthew Brandt

From the series Lakes and Reservoirs. I let the chemical properties of the components of each landscape I photograph influence its own representation. To that effect, the original c-print was soaked in Alcoa Reservoir water until the color layers broke apart, creating a final image deeply connected to its subject.

Catalog Edition: Meg Birnbaum


Trouble In Mind
Meg Birnbaum

From the series Daylight Savings in which I seek to capture the magic and wonder of any given summer day. Specifically the mercurial perfectness and finite preciousness of August, or August as a state of mind.

Catalog Edition: Greg Mrotek


Ricart's Car Dealership, Columbus, Ohio, 2007

Greg Mrotek

From the series Constellations, which explores the landscape of strip malls. Ricart boasts that they have the largest inventory of cars in the state, possibly the country. Situated right next to the higway, the acres of cars on display is a blinding sight to drive by, so vast people have to be shuttled around in golf carts to view the cars.

Catalog Edition: Kristopher Stallworth


Untitled 1

Kristopher Stallworth

From the series Everywhere / Nowhere. We are surrounded by a generic landscape that varies little from one place to the next. Regional architecture has been surpassed by a landscape of shopping malls, parking lots, and construction sites. I photograph these areas that remain undefined, making sense of them by applying my own aesthetics. In doing so, I transform placeless environments into fractions of landscape that hold some sort of beauty.

Catalog Edition: Betsy Dorman


Untitled, The Poconos, PA
Betsy Dorman

From the parallel series Home and Away, where ideas of comfort, familiarity and memory are weighed with those of removal and separation. Both the gap that exists and the amalgamations that emerge are explored. In this photograph, a man-made lake lies beside a bucolic cabin, tucked inside of 100 acres of private woods in the Pennsylvania Poconos.

Catalog Edition: Seza Bali


Untitled, 2008
Seza Bali

From the series Nevada: memory, place and belonging in the American landscape. I investigate the interaction between people and their environments, from private and familiar to the strange and unknown.

Catalog edition: Susan Lynn Smith


Untitled (Tree), Treasure Island, CA, USA, 2007
Susan Lynn Smith

My photographs depict places that, to the passerby, do not suggest any obvious reason to linger. Upon closer examination, these often overlooked everyday environments, anticipate an impending drama or one just missed. In each image, a tension develops between ordinary perception and ironic estrangement. I explore the vulnerability in moments of transition, in which discovery remains just out of grasp.
