The Dodge & Burn Book

(Coming Soon) 


Community building is a vital part of my practice. In 2007 I founded Dodge & Burn: Decolonizing Photography History (est. 2007), an arts education initiative addressing questions of race and inequality in photography. I’m currently editing a book based on the blog’s past interviews with photographers of color is to be published by Routledge/Taylor & Francis - STAY TUNED!

Dodge & Burn began as a blog and from 2013-2022 functioned as a monthly critique group hosted in NYC and virtually during the COVID-19 pandemic. SIGN UP to receive future email updates about the critique group.
