Mike Slack lives in Los Angeles and works as a sales rep for various publishers. OK OK OK, his first book, is a collection of recent polaroids, taken across the United States.
Subtle and playful, intuitively sequenced, alert to unexpected compositions and color combinations, Mike Slack has created major work in this small format. He nods to Walker Evans' polaroids and Eggelston's blank stare, but offers up his own mysterious definition of beauty.
Its such a wonderful description of pure nostalgic joy. The absolute embodyment of the renegade youth, beauty, and freedom of a T.Rex song in picture form.
