Journey West Exhibit

Journey West Exhibit

Moving to Arizona in December 2001 to the small former copper mining town of Ajo, about 40 miles from the Mexico border, I started photographing the local landscape and infrastructure which was to become a three part series titled Journey West Exhibit. The three sections were broken down into travels between Ajo to Tucson, Tucson to Phoenix and finally Phoenix to Ajo; each city is approximately 110 miles from the other. All of this work was shot with film using a medium-format Pentax. The first section, Ajo to Tucson was first presented at Tucson International Airport and then later at the Phoenix Airport Museum at Sky Harbor International in 2007.
