Nominee

"Painted Desert"
6x17mm Rollei infrared film

Biography: Cody concentrates his focus on abandoned farms, crumbling homes, neglected churches, aging cemeteries, forgotten cars and other objects, set within the vastness of the southwestern landscape. By working almost entirely with infrared film, he captures the surreal dreamscape of "The Western Abandon". The wide range of cameras he uses, varying from a 4x5 to 6x17 panoramic, and also various formats of pinhole cameras, reflect the narrative of a bygone era. The analog captures are then scanned and output as black and white digital chromogenic prints.
