Each installment of Fall Line's new series RADAR examines a geographical region, with the inaugural issue, Red Clay, exploring the American South. Artists Nydia Blas, Tim Davis, Maury Gortemiller, Laura Noel, and Anderson Scott are joined by Pulitzer Prize winning poet Forrest Gander in depicting the mythic region.

Red Clay consists of 5 photobooks and 1 book of poetry housed in a custom made slipcase. The books comprising Red Clay are as varied as the region they depict.

Blas's contribution details the impressions of an African American woman experiencing the South in person after years of living elsewhere; Tim Davis explores with humor and poignancy surreal images from Florida and nearby; Laura Noel's contribution focuses on individuals who are on their "smoke break" and enjoying a cigarette; Gortemiller uses Donald Trump's The Art of the Deal as inspiration for constructed images that are by turns compelling and uneasy; and Scott documents the architectural remnants of the now defunct religious cult, the Nuwabians, based in Georgia. Lastly, Gander ties everything together with poems inspired by each artist's photographs.
