A Collection of Images Inspired by the Road
Give me a sign somewhere…Crossing the Nullarbor Plains by JuliaWright
A Collection of Images Inspired by the Road by Beth Douglas
The open road, the endless highway and a full tank of gas has been a timeless source of inspiration for some of the greatest artists of our time. Robert Frost, Jack Kerouac, Johnny Cash and Robert Frank all sourced ideas and created work about the transient state of having departed but not yet arrived. The creative freedom that stems from the possibilities travel provides has inspired the following collection of our finest images on the exhilliration, intoxicating trepidation and explorative nature of being on the road.
