An adventurous and thoughtful photographic exploration of Canada and Canadian identity.
176 Pages 11” x 8.5”
This collection of images, taken over a decade and in every corner of the country, explores and questions what being a Canadian means. The photographs depict Roades’s poignantly observed, first-person experience, visiting both recognizable and remote places that vary drastically in geography, history, socio-economic status, and overarching lifestyle.
Roades intrigues the viewer with images of the cultural threads that hold Canada together, and effortlessly weaves local idiosyncrasies together with iconic landscapes from coast to coast. If you have travelled in any part of Canada, you will see something delightfully familiar, and in a country with so much to explore somewhere new to add to your list.
