The Distance Between

Everyone experiences varying degrees of traumas and difficulty throughout their lives. 
This book is my exploration into my own past and an acknowledgment of the effects of some of the experiences throughout my life. My exploration was heavily inspired by some of the incredibly relevant poetry of Yung Pueblo, which made me confront some of my inner struggles. This content coincides with my imagery of desert landscapes from my many adventures, why you ask?
There has never been a place I’ve misunderstood more than the desert. I used to think it was just a hot, ugly place where nothing beautiful lived. As I’ve ventured to these places more, my eyes have been opened and I am beginning to understand the intense beauty and life that exists in these places. The amount of peace that I experience every time I sleep under the stars in these places
is just another reminder of how nature plays a huge part in helping us understand ourselves if we are open to it.
