Sons of the Living is a photobook about the land and people along the highways of America’s deserts. Photographed over the course of a decade across the arid and expansive landscapes of the American West, this work explores the human capacity for endurance.
Schutmaat offers an updated view of the “open road,” addressing a new era of uncertainty and anxiety. Against a backdrop of environmental decline, economic dispossession, and societal neglect, Sons of the Living draws attention to the challenges ahead while searching for the hope and resilience needed to withstand them.
