MADE IN CALIFORNIA
SELF PUBLISHED 2017
EDITION OF 50, A5
Found photos courtesy of Fairfax Highschool Flea market
A quintessential road trip across California — an early exercise to document the diversity of landscapes offered in a single state. Exploring the interplay between location and human presence, utilising roadside stops and tourist hotspots as a platform to snap fortuitous moments, each soaked in the never-ending Californian sun. These works were displayed in a limited edition self-published record.
