TITLE : WAS THIS THE AMERICAN DREAM ?
SERIES
AUTHOR : RODRIGO PAREDES
“Print Your Vision” was our latest Open Call to select a winning project and print it as a photobook.
We’re now showcasing the finalist projects on our website.
This is the series that Rodrigo Paredes has presented to the Open Call.
“Where did the American dream go?
Where did those hopes vanish?
What happened to so many abandoned towns and places scattered across such a vast country?
Far from the bright lights of the big cities lie the bones of a nation whose past seems far greater than its present.
A visual journey across most of the states, traveled by car, as if reenacting Robert Frank’s The Americans for a new century.”.
