Carolina Cowboy

$20 + shipping

In North Carolina, rodeo is not just a sport, but a space of return: to family, to community, to country and to a slower pace of life. 

Photographed on a single wide-angle lens between 2022 and 2023, this project reveals how rodeo serves as an anchor for rural communities across North Carolina — particularly as they continue to confront the loss of manufacturing and the encroachment of suburban sprawl.
