**100 hand-numbered copies** Perfect Fatigue is a collection of film photography taken throughout North America between 2009 and 2014. Directly engaging with the legacy of landscape photography, the images in this collection document a series of encounters between the elemental and the human. The natural world, captured with an almost mystical, luminous sense of place, becomes a sequence of sites that are both filmic and autobiographical.
