During the summer of 2011, Alex Wein, MICA photographer, embarked on a road trip from San Francisco to Baltimore. On leaving San Francisco he started a project which has continued on into 2012 and has just been released on his site, Headstands 2011-2012. Images appear from the familiar as well as the non-descript interstate landscapes, Hollywood, Navajo State, Graceland, The Grand Canyon, Monument Valley and the seemingly neverending I-40. This is a novel and personal approach to the tried and tested path of a photographers road trip across America by car. Alex documents the places seen and travelled through but continually puts himself within the frame of the images he makes. Returning to his home state of Maryland, and the city of Baltimore he has continued to produce images for this project, which range from the stunning landscape of his home state to a decimated Baltimore neighborhood
