Riassunto
Attracted by the distinctive topography and light of Death Valley, Stephen Strom began regularly travelling there some thirty-five years ago. His acute eye for abstract takes in the land’s myriad details that give the area its distinctive and varied character. Strom’s photographs are complemented by Alison Hawthorne Deming’s original sequence of poems.
