In Chase-Daniel's 2011 series of black and white flatplate scanner photographs of the human body, we are engaged with a rare blend of intimacy and anonymity.

In 2011, Axle Contemporary created the Haiku Roadsign Project: 32 Haiku by New Mexico-based poets, 2 per week on a portable roadsign in 16 locations around the streets of Santa Fe, New Mexico.

The Axle Contemporary free portrait studio was open to all people, in locations on and near the Navajo Nation from September 2 through September 13, 2016, visiting Gallup, Prewitt, Toadlena, Window Rock, Chinle, Shiprock, and...
