Introduction by Pierce Rafferty
Design by Cara Buzzell
Inventory of the Impermanent brings together work made among the year-round community of Fishers Island, New York, at the mouth of Long Island Sound. Matt Kaelin records domestic spaces, lived landscapes and the traces people leave behind, revealing a life shaped by repetition, solitude and change.
The result offers a rare and nuanced view of a small island community: with quiet precision he builds an intimate and deeply contemplative body of work that reflects the rhythms of daily life and the subtle transformations of a place over time.
