Mark Ruwedel - Seventy-Two and One Half Miles Across Los Angeles The Americans

Mark Ruwedel - Seventy-Two and One Half Miles Across Los Angeles The AmericansMACK 2020 For this project, Mark Ruwedel travelled across Los Angeles between 2011 2014, following in the footsteps of friend and author Nigel Raab.

Her images capture an intuitive architectural intelligence and capture a genre of vernacular construction with its own conventions and inno­vations

The sequel to all that cannot be said

We have the same dreams

Side by side
