The following description comes from the event organizer.

Mike Vos presents a new sort of landscape photography, one for the Anthropocene, one that is a practice of both time and place, and one which seeks contextual transcendence by altering what and how we see. Somewhere in Another Place (Buckman Publishing) distills more than three years of work and countless miles traveled across the continent into 49 double exposure photographs made in-camera with no digital intervention, representing nearly 100 distinct locations. We are invited into a procession of carefully invented places, to witness their visual echoes, to see their waters mirror ancient shapes. Here you’ll find vessels mixed with mountains, waterfalls framed by windows, stalactites crossed with a satellite dish, geologic formations stitched with ephemeral human structures on their way out of existence. Because all imagery is composed, overlaid, and captured manually on a large format camera, Vos plays an existential Tetris of fitting together immersive new terrains and opening a unique plane to consider the mesh of interactions between landscape, the built environment, and the self. Vos will be joined in conversation by independent curator and visual artist Liza Faktor.
