Summary: “Moving out of State- Reasonable”, comes from a hand-written for sale sign someone posted on a crypt. I photographed it, and it became the title because it refers to elements of all the photos in this book. The indications are of movement – cars, roads, gas stations. Signs aren’t permanent, they’re temporal, and often outlast the things they signify. And some of the signs are contradictory, or convey more eternal things. The photos with religious references or overtones imply a society moving in and out of various states of being, and “Reasonable” serves as a reference to a commodified god.

Date and place of birth of photographer/s: 1979, Florida

The Indie Photobook Library is TWO!

This past weekend, the Indie Photobook Library celebrated its 2nd Anniversary. Thank you to all the photographers/artists/bookmakers that have made the collection what it is today! I’d also like to thank Advisory Board members Darius Himes, Andy Adams, Shane Lavalette, and Gabe Reed and all the venues that have welcomed the iPL. In the last two years, the collection has grown to almost 1000 books. The iPL continues to promote and showcase the books in the collection through international pop-up and feature-length exhibitions, articles, conferences, guest lectures, and also preserves them as a non-circulating public library. Having a specific collection dedicated to this contemporary movement in publishing allows for the development of future discourse on trends in self-publishing, the ability to reflect on and compare books in the collection, and for scholarly research to be conducted years, decades, and centuries to come. I am looking forward to continuing the iPL mission.

Cheers,
Larissa Leclair
Founder, Indie Photobook Library
