    Yvette Monahan | The Time of Dreaming the World Awake

I would find myself at a destination with little memory of the journey. I found that really intriguing (as well as terrifying from a road safety standpoint). There is something uniquely private and lonely about being in a car, I really wanted to photograph it. (mehr …)
