About the Book
This collection titled Road Ends in Water is a visual record of Kira Lawler’s family, their relationships with each other and the midwestern landscape around them, as well as the changes that occur as time inevitably moves forward. This body of work is characterized by its stark, empty landscapes intermixed with intimate photos of Lawler’s family home. This work was created as an outlet to cope with and prepare for grief, and as a collection of memories of places, people, and things that will eventually fade. This photo series deals with themes of rurality, religion, emptiness, identity, and death.
