CALIFORNIA BONES

California Bones is a photographic series that traces the deserted and haunting beauty of Southern California’s arid landscapes.

I was looking at the way things get left behind, the way landscapes hold that silence. There’s something beautiful in how certain places seem stripped down to their essentials. No one watches them. No one remembers what they were for but, they’re still there and they still speak.
This series is about the dignity of the abandoned, the skeletons of places we drive past, and the strange comfort I found in their emptiness.
