About the Item
For years, Jahiel has been photographing the cowboys of the
Great Basin–perhaps one of the most inhospitable regions of the already rugged West.
These people represent one of the last authentic American subcultures, one that is disappearing at a rapid rate. Cowboying as an art form is almost obsolete; still, the cowboys hang on, with a ferocious tenacity. Respect there doesn’t come from the trappings of modern life. Talent, knowledge, and skill are valued above all else. And the cowboy tradition has its roots in the oldest of human conflicts: man against nature and man against himself.
Jahiel tries to reflect those sentiments in these photographs. These cowboys aren’t “remade” into a Hollywood image, instead, they are “found” images, in keeping with the spirit of authenticity that permeates the best keepers of this tradition.
