The book is the result of Axle Contemporary's mobile portrait project which took place in Southeastern New Mexico in October, 2018. The book contains over 900 photographic portraits, images of the project in action, essays by the artists and a foreword by Joshua Wheeler. The Axle Contemporary free portrait studio was open to all people, in the communities of Roswell, Lovington, Hobbs, Alamogordo, Tularosa, Carrizozo, Ruidoso, Mescalero, Carlsbad, Artesia, Portales, and Clovis. Each participant held a small personal object in their portrait. Photos were immediately printed in the mobile studio --one given to the participant and one pasted to the exterior of the mobile studio-gallery.
