In her words, “Raku pottery is, for me, a basic art form, in that it utilizes the basic elements of my environment—clay and minerals from the earth, fire for the metamorphosis; air to bring out the metallic sheen; and water to set and stabilize the chemical reactions.” JacobsGalleryShop.com

42 Pressed is a letterpress and design studio founded in 2009 by Jackie Hall Robinson and her husband, Tyler. Specializing in sustainable, unique paper goods that fit the style of the edgy minimalist correspondent, they are based on a sleepy island called Wadmalaw, located 30 minutes outside of their hometown city of Charleston, South Carolina. Their Scape Collection is a landscape study that evolved into a line of home goods using deliberately ripped, shaped or cut paper designed to mimic specific landscape horizons that have become expressions of their own regional identities. The Coast and Desert candles feature frosted glass with torn labels mimicking coastal and desert landscapes. Made with American-grown soy wax, Coast has notes of salt, bergamot, sea grass and kelp, and Desert has notes of clary sage, pinyon, copal and dry woods. 42Pressed.com

From the monochromatic and distressed black-and-white images that began the series to the oversaturated color of more recent years, these photographs present a startlingly fresh perspective on America.
