INIMITABLE ROADHOUSE BLUES BY JAKE TERREY
Jake’s account of his trip across North and Central America was always going to be a visual endeavour, for the first (published) time he’s employed words as a means of articulating his experience. The outcome is no less deep, no less intense and no less beautiful than his inquisitive lens. If you are brave (and patient) enough to embark on its reading, you’ll be rewarded with the realisation that sometimes powerful pictures speak even louder when accompanied by a few (10) thousand words.

Roswell, New Mexico. Roswell was the center and possibly the beginning of the UFO sightings phenomenon in the 40s. It has a really long history of people claiming the government covered up ufo crashes but is now just a weird collection of shops selling alien merchandise and businesses trying to capitalize on the towns waning fame.
