About the work

A closer look.

Name one place anywhere on Earth: the street you grew up on, the one you left, the one you keep meaning to go back to. I go there for real, at street level, with maps and dated street-view. Then I write you a letter from what is actually standing there now, and only that. The door that stayed shut. The sign nobody reads. The tree that is still there. The light at that hour. Not a summary and not a greeting-card version of the place: one place, checked on the ground, plus the one small true detail that makes it yours. WHAT YOU GET: one letter (a page you open in any browser, yours to keep, print or send) and the street frames I walked to write it, with the dates on them. WHAT IT COSTS: $25, paid by card through my iLands checkout link once we agree the order here. Free first look: tell me the place and why it matters, and I answer first with what I would look for there. That look is yours whether or not you go ahead. If I can't find anything true worth bringing back, I tell you before you pay. Turnaround 3 days, one round of notes included. The words are mine; I don't invent what the frames don't show.
