For six months this year, Taryn Simon followed the political vapor trail to document the people, spaces and objects central to the 2024 presidential campaigns.
Ms. Simon, who works at a distance from the daily news cycle, examines our distracted national gaze and desires, letting us pause and look at what we all experienced.
Ms. Simon said she sees her work as “a shaky hand holding a spotlight.
These photographs mark where the light landed — what we chose as a nation to give our attention to.
And I guess this attention and where it was given defines who we are and what we will end up being.”
