These photographs were made along the serpentine mountain roads between Signal Mountain and Cumberland Gap, tracing Tennessee’s Cumberland Trail corridor.

Boillot is still somewhere out there on one of those roads and she is still listening.Rachel Boillot is a photographer, Filmmaker, and educator based in Cumberland Gap, TN.Lisa Volpe is the Associate Curator, Photography at the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston.Sasha Wolf is a curator, editor, and art dealer in New York City and the director of Sasha Wolf Projects.

But as you drill down into them, you start to see that they are also documents of loss." - The Washington Post, December 9, 2020"The images document abandoned industrial and residential sites, as well as the toxic side effects of urban growth. They shine a light on the consequences of past planning decisions, institutional racism, environmental disregard, and America’s unchecked manifest destiny." - Photobook JournalAlso featured in:DiggPhotographs by Travis FoxForeword by Philip KennicottRemains To Be Seen explores a disappearing but still tangible American landscape, from the rust-belt towns of the Midwest to the borscht-belt resorts of the Catskill mountains. Using aerial photography with documentary candor and precision, Travis Fox creates a visually sumptuous record of former industrial sites and abandoned neighborhoods that persist as incisions on the landscape, scars in the memory, and traces of healing. Fox finds patterns that would be undetectable from the ground, uncovering a new visual record of old and debilitating problems, from institutionalized racism to environmental destruction. Remains to be Seen offers a bracing vision of an America that has become so familiar that it is, paradoxically, invisible to many Americans. Through a view from above, detached but vulnerable, his camera counters that disappearance and connects old landscapes to contemporary conscience.Travis Fox is an Emmy Award-winning journalist and the Director of Visual Journalism at the Craig Newmark Graduate School of Journalism at CUNY.Philip Kennicott is the Pulitzer Prize-winning Senior Art and Architecture Critic of the Washington Post.
