One Sun, One Shadow

Shane Lavalette was commissioned by the High Museum in Atlanta to create a series of photographs for the exhibition *Picturing the South* which would become his monograph, *One Sun, One Shadow*. It was primarily through traditional musicthe sounds of old time, blues, and gospelthat Lavalette had formed a relationship with the region. This history became a natural entry point to explore the connection between music and the landscape of the American South through images.

*One Sun One Shadow* was named one of the Best Books of the year by photo-eye and shortlisted for the Kassel Photobook Award and the Author Book Award at Les Rencontres d'Arles. Lavalette's work has been featured byvarious publications, including *The New York Times*,*TIME*,*NPR*,*CNN*,*The Telegraph*,*Aperture*,*Hotshoe*, and *Foam Magazine*.
