Garrett Grove’s Errors of Possession is a photobook about the land and people of the United States’ rural Northwest. It offers an ambiguous look into the lives of blue collar Americans and the ways in which agriculture, industry, and humans’ pursuit of a fabled American Dream have profoundly altered the country. All of the photos in this book were shot in and around small coastal, farming, and logging towns in Oregon and Washington, leading up to and shortly following the presidential election of 2016.
Errors of Possession comes in an Edition of 750, with a text by Travis Klunick.
