American Slog encapsulates the dichotomy of American life through the eyes of 10 photographers. They see the beauty of our freedoms, but also face the harsh realities that challenge people amidst the daily grind of life. By capturing the nuanced interplay between prosperity and adversity, the show aims to evoke a sense of the true American experience. Every photograph is paired with a book that has shaped the artist's vision, allowing the viewer to explore their perspectives and diverse backgrounds.
