Notes on the work, Pioneer Portraits

This current on-going work is based on items of survival of female explorers and pioneers, such as Nellie Bly, Emma Gatewood, Juana Maria, and Peace Pilgrim. Each photograph is a stack of the items that were taken with each woman on their journey. Most if not all of the women traveled alone. I am interested in the explorations these women throughout history have taken and the small amount of items needed for such a journey.
