“These photographs were accumulated over the span of a few summers in East Tennessee and the surrounding region of the Appalachian Mountains. This collection is about the brevity of light between hills, where we live, and where distant horizons are few. The work was made out of love for people and the landscape in which we are confined.” —Harrison Miller
Entirely handmade, Valleys is an expressive ode to land and community; the delicate lyricism of the images and its physicality, in its choices of paper and binding elements, come together in a carefully crafted, subtle, tactile experience.
