Down By The Hudson by Caleb Stein, published by Palo Press

Down By The Hudson presents over a decade of summers Caleb Stein spent photographing a creek in Poughkeepsie, New York. Since 2013, Stein has returned to the same stretch of water each year, observing the recurring rhythms of friendship, gathering, and care that define this communal space. What began as documentation gradually became a lyrical and tender ode to the freedom and edenic sense of community the place elicits.

 

Caleb Stein will present his photobook at PhMuseum Lab in Bologna, Italy, on 5 November. Subscribe to our newsletter to keep updated.
