The Roads That Embraced Me

How do you come to know the place that took you in? Through portraits made on a tour across Nebraska, a photographer honors the people and landscapes of his adopted home state, bringing into focus a belief that belonging is not a destination we arrive at once and for all. It is something we make, continually, together.

Abstract

How do you come to know the place that took you in? Through portraits made on a tour across Nebraska, a photographer honors the people and landscapes of his adopted home state, bringing into focus a belief that belonging is not a destination we arrive at once and for all. It is something we make, continually, together.
