Mountain View

Artist: Johnathon Kelso

Project: Mountain View

Description: “Mountain View” documents what’s left of the small Georgia town of the same name that fell victim to the expansion of the Atlanta airport in the 1970s. This work shows what remains in the wake of progress.

 

Eyes on the South is curated by Jeff Rich. The weekly series features selections of current work from Southern artists, or artists whose photography concerns the South.
