I am photographing the Mason – Dixon Line from its beginning at Fenwick Island, Delaware 365 miles to its formal end  at the southwest border of Pennsylvania and the northern border of West Virginia. I am seeking to photograph the border of cultural distinctions. I am photographing more than the actual physical line, driving and walking to find what significance appears or if anything atypical occurs at the border crossings. The border created separation, not the people of the land insisting for a division.

The Mason – Dixon Line is an actual border, not a mythic barrier of freedom, nor was it intended to be the division of ‘North’ and ‘South’ in the United States. The line was created 13 years before the formation this country and had no initial direct connection to the Civil War, which occurred 98 years later.

This will be an ongoing project. Proceed in this website to see the more finished work.

I'm maintaining a blog as well for more quick edits:
