The book is the result of Axle Contemporary's mobile portrait project which took place in Northern New Mexico in August, September, and October, 2022. The book contains 1300 photographic portraits, images of the project in action, essays by the artists and a poem by Taos Poet Laureate Joshua Concha. The Axle Contemporary free portrait studio was open to all people, in the communities of Los Alamos, Espanola, Chimayo, Pojoaque, Ohkay Owingeh, Truchas, Penasco, Dixon, Taos, El Prado, Questa, Costilla (Garcia CO), Raton, Watrous, Clayton, Roy, Mosquero, Tucumcari, Las Vegas, Mora, Abiquiu, and Chama. 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. The cover is a blend off all the portraits.
