Roadbook presents the work of documentary photographer Hunter Barnes. His beautiful, sensitive photographs document aspects of American culture and communities overlooked by the mainstream, focusing on proud people repeatedly misrepresented in contemporary American narratives. “For years, I have travelled with my cameras, capturing moments with the people the road has led me to.”
 
 
 
His photographs show moments and scenes most people will never experience firsthand. Barnes values the friendships he builds with people who recognise his sincerity and grant him access to their private worlds. Having established trust through meaningful dialogue and shared experiences, he portrays his subjects as they are, in the places they inhabit. Working exclusively with black-and-white film, he accompanies his striking photographs with his own lyrical reflections.
 
 
 
A powerful body of work by one of America's important emerging documentary photographers.
