Jasper

Rate this book
pines grow pulling the old dreams through the soil
pinesap climbing into its limbs lifting a ladder like solitude


Inspired by the life and work of the poet and land surveyor, Frank Stanford, these photographs of hermetic homes and men living in solitude were taken in the Ozark Mountains of Arkansas and Missouri

By capturing the foggy landscapes, cluttered interiors, and rugged men that are tucked away in the dark woods, Jasper explores a fascination with running away from the everyday. The work bounces between fact and fiction, exhibiting the reality and myth of what it means to be truly apart from society.

A deeply tender and aesthetically groundbreaking exploration of the solitary and perseverant lives that go on in the Ozark mountains of Arkansas. I couldn't recommend this book highly enough.

A little bit Walker Evans, a little bit Todd Hido, and a little bit of Susan Lipper. A gorgeously produced book. I'd probably give it more a 3.5, but....
