Where the Heart Is: Portraits from Vernacular American Trailer and Mobile Home Parks

As housing instability and evictions surge, Where the Heart Is: Portraits from Vernacular American Trailer and Mobile Home Parks investigates this deeply affected, predominantly American housing form. This ongoing photographic study challenges the ingrained stereotyping of both the estimated 20 million Americans who live in manufactured housing (as stigmatized trailer and mobile homes are being rebranded) as well as of the rapidly vanishing mobile home parks themselves within which this project focuses.

Solo exhibition of 27 images from Where the Heart Is on view at the Griffin Museum of Photography in Winchester MA from October 26 - December 5, 2021

Reception open to the public at the Griffin on November 7 from 4-6pm. Come meet the artist and consider buying a self-published exhibition catalog.

Proceeds from the sale of the catalog and exhibition prints during the show go to support the nonprofit Griffin’s mission to promote photographic art and a broader understanding of its visual, emotional, and social impact.
