About these images

Earth Forms book coverStephen Strom has photographed in the southwestern desert lands of the United States for more than 20 years and this book brings together, for the first time, a selection of his most powerful and memorable images.

Strom brings to this landscape the sensibilities of an astronomer who has lived in the desert for almost two decades. His photographs capture a land shaped both by the millennial forces of prehistory and also by yesterday's cloudburst. His images have the power to compress vast desert spaces in an illusion of intimacy and comprehension, presenting undulations of colour and form which appear reimagined in a light that at once penetrates and sculpts.

Published in 2009, the book Earth Forms, with essays by Gregory McNamee and Albert Stewart, is the first fine art quality monograph of Stephen's photographs. The book, 12" on a side (300 mm), includes 43 photographs, 96 pages. The website for the book contains a full description and excerpts from the photographs and the essays.

If you wish to purchase a copy signed by the photographer, send a message using the contact form on this website. These copies will be available for $45 plus the cost of shipping and handling. Media mail shipping including padded packaging will be $6.50.

If you wish to carry this book in your store, the US distributor is in Minneapolis. Distribution information, in the US and elsewhere, can be found on the Dewi Lewis Publishing website.
