Grateful to be participating in our 9th SF Art Book Fair this weekend!! Feels like just yesterday that our volunteer efforts in 2016 led us to where we are now...

Hope to see y’all there between Thursday and Sunday. Prepping for some exciting things for later this year, but happy to be tabling some old favorites and, as always, several projects by our friends.

We will be tabling at the Small Press Book Bazaar on Saturday, Dec 6, from 12–7PM!

This year, and like many other local publishers, we were very saddened to learn of SFMOMA’s decision to discontinue this beloved program. We’re so grateful that many of us who shared this sentiment stepped in to find a way to host the event at a different space, and well, here we are! Nothing is impossible when our community comes together, so shout out to @thelabsf for hosting — and to @davidseniorjr @colpapress (and others) for organizing 🖤

We sadly might not have anything new to share, but we will be wheeling and dealing some old favorites. And we’ll be super excited to be in the mix, as always. Hope to see you there!!

Incoming talk! Today from 4–5PM in the @sfartbookfair Lounge: catch Adrian Martinez, Josh Schaedel, and Wyatt Naoki Conlon in conversation for a special program about collaboration.

They’ll be joined by SFMOMA Curatorial Assistant, Alex Landry, who will be moderating this chat about photo practice, publishing, independent art spaces, and well, life. No slides, just vibes — and stories that can hopefully encourage the next wave of ambitious artists to take on similar endeavors.

Hope you can make it! by @illetante

(Sold out!) Happy to announce the release of my first book, Fruited Plains 🌾

Shot over the course of 2-years, 32 states (4 I called home), and over 12,000 miles on the road, this body of work showcases the peculiarity of American life through everyday moments and landscapes across the country. It captures a 1,000-yard view of the country as a whole and the myriad of experiences that make up its fabric. With a deep appreciation for the ordinary and moments of solitude, these photographs reveal the subtle and poetic moments that are often overlooked.

Self-published in partnership with @illetante
Printed by @editiononebooks
Cover art by @kevinshapiro

The first 3 copies purchased through the site will receive an 8”x10” hand-printed silver gelatin print in addition of 5. Link in bio to purchase.

A HUGE thank you to everyone who supported me along the way and helped make this project a reality. I couldnt have done this without my community 🩶🌾🩶 by @illetante
