We live in an age of accelerated transition. These images are of the “in between” places. - Suzette Bross

Blurred but nonetheless identifiable, Suzette Bross’ digital inkjet prints of the rural and suburban landscape mark the pace of modern life. Shot through the glass of a car window, these photographs capture not simply the sensation of traveling, but of experiencing the world only in passing. Only the arresting orange of a plastic fence or the bright pink of a roller coaster in an otherwise muted palette catch the eye long enough to record these scenes we so often fail to notice.
