“The people I photograph work with their hands. They include beekeepers who wear no protective clothing, catfish noodlers who grab eighty-pound fish, and shrimpers who sort out bycatch from the shrimp they will sell,” Holly Lyndon @hollylynton says of her astonishing book about modern agrarian life in America, Bare Handed.

Lyton traveled across the U.S. and returned to the same communities year after year to make what became her debut book with @lartiere . Bare Handed comprises 85 gestural portraits depicting people working barehanded in tandem with their environments and using tools mostly replaced by mechanization.

Lynton is among eight artists joining us in the studio on Saturday, Dec 7 to celebrate the work by L’Artiere Edizioni. Full line up and RSVP via link in bio!
