When Eye Land

We worked closely with artist Star Feliz on the design and production of their debut monograph, "When Eye Land". The book explores their Dominican heritage and the recorded history of DR. For decades, continuing into the late 20th century, the nation was buffeted by waves of political strongmen, pretenders, popular uprisings, and American meddling. Like its author, the subject is a land of shifting identities.

When Eye Land garnered critical attention after being shortlisted for the Paris Photo-Aperture first Photobook award.

When Eye Land is a summary report of sorts, it collects materials of all types and dates from a range of sources, including Santo Domingo museums and institutions, American universities, books, magazines, the Library of Congress, and the Internet. 181 images were selected for the book, each one dutifully referenced in the rear index. It’s an art monograph to be sure, but with one footnote firmly planted in academia.
