Into the Desert Wilderness🌵
On the Road
February 19, 2023
Though I needed the Kelso Dunes in the Mojave Desert for a backdrop of a special photoshoot, I only stayed briefly. But these hours were my initiation into the road, an offering to wild time… time that exists outside the constructs of tedium–impractical, untainted, and because of these, unsustainable. Its contrast, its expiration strengthens its magic.
After the Mojave desert, I was on Route 66–happily–as on it and alongside it, the varied reverence of the journey.
So in love with the road, I want to take pictures inside of it. Like a lover it cuddles to my form.
Sights along the way: The desert town of Amboy, California–a boom town of Route 66.

In Twentynine Palms, California is an art installation by artist Jack Pierson. It’s art! Make of it what you will.
