Michael Marcelle's Our Wild Indians

Graphic Intersections collaborator Michael Marcelle's new project Our Wild Indians is an exploration of Atlantic City. Far from the standard Americana-drenched representations we've become familiar with, Marcelle's investigation of this iconic beach community takes a more abstract and idiosyncratic stance. Buildings shrouded mist, cryptic wall drawings and anonymous beachscapes pervade Old Wild Indians. Things are obscured rather than illuminated. Ultimately, Marcelle ability to render the unremarkable with intriguing strangeness shines through beautifully in this series.
