About the Item
Patrick Sansone uses analog cameras and film to create photographs that reference stillness, lure, and intermission. Decaying signage, abandoned industrial sites, and defunct storefronts are the artifacts of a near-mythic America, now abandoned. Sansone captures these moments in glimpses divorced from context - the landscapes and locales are decidedly post-human found abstractions.
Born and raised in Meridian, Mississippi the self-taught Sansone's photographs embody a Southern aesthetic, not unlike Williams Eggleston and Christenberry’s works of haunted light and life-worn places.
Sansone takes photographs while on the road as both a touring musician with the renowned American rock and roll band, Wilco, and on solitary road-trips.
His photographs reflect a restless and meditative curiosity, and a painter’s eye for color. Through his camera, Sansone offers a record of a time and place that is both intimate and forever just out of reach. Sansone describes the state of mind he reaches for in making this work as a “heightened state of noticing.”
Sansone’s photography practice began in the mid-2000s after discovering a love of the Polaroid SX70 camera. In 2010 he published “100 Polaroids”, a limited edition book of Polaroid photography that accompanied an exhibit at MASS MOCA.
In 2020 He published a limited edition 2nd printing of the book. In more recent years Sansone has moved away from the Polaroid format, and uses 35mm and medium format film cameras.
The concepts of meditation, the language of color, the alchemy of light and time, and the tensions between presence and remembrance are central to his work.
Ghost Town is a meditation on abandoned commercial enterprises, the result of an economic or natural disaster, in towns and cities everywhere. The emptiness and decay in the iconic lettering in signs and forlorn window shops are faithfully gathered and recorded by Patrick Sansone in his photographs taken during road trips, a part of his on-going research. The poetics that these left-behind artifacts embody are rendered as this artist navigates his own feelings about this subject.
Part homage, part cautionary tale, these works evoke memories of similar signs and locations that many of us have encountered in our own travels and daily life. The messages their images telegraph become an endless scroll of possible narratives. Who were the people that occupied these businesses? Why did the business, and often the entire town fold?
The attractive pull in these works is about wistfulness for the remnants of the ghosts of the past in the cruddy, faded colors, peeling paint, and broken glass. Moderne Design of the 1930s-60s used both in the architecture and the lettering on these storefronts and signs, which signaled velocity, ambition, and style.
There is a frailty implied in these works, often tinged with a dry sense of humor.

'2015 Memorial Drive, Atlanta, GA' documentary photography, urban landscape
By Peter Essick
Located in Atlanta, GA
This listing is for an unframed print. Framing options are available.
Peter Essick is inspired by the work of Walker Evans, Ray Metzker, Ansel Adams and David Hockney.
Peter Essick is a photographer, author and drone pilot who specializes in nature and environmental themes. His latest series, "Memorial Drive," documents the thoroughfare that stretches between the Georgia State Capitol and the Confederate monument at Stone Mountain. Originally known as East Fair Street, Memorial Drive was one of the first roads in Atlanta, and connected the downtown commercial districts to the residential neighborhoods of East Lake and Kirkwood. In 1930, it was expanded all the way to Memorial Hall in Stone Mountain Park with the use of convict labor. The now 15-mile-long thoroughfare took on a new symbolic meaning to physically connect the State Capitol with the Confederate monument at Stone Mountain. According to an article in The Atlanta Constitution on February 2, 1930, Memorial Drive was “another step in the effort of Atlanta and Georgia to honor the memory of the heroes of the confederacy.”
In the years since, Memorial Drive has acquired even more history. The street passes through communities of a wide diversity of people. These neighborhoods have seen cycles of development, economic decline, redevelopment and in some recent cases complete gentrification. People from all over the world as well as those from just across town have come to live and work on or near Memorial Drive. The street’s story is complex and of interest not only to developers and realtors, but also urban planners, sociologists, community activists, business owners, residents and even artists. Peter used a drone to take many of the photographs in the series, using a survey approach, he hopes to peak a viewers’ interest with the wide array of subjects.
