Desert Decay

A collection of witty, lush, and stunning poetic imagery which illustrates a mesmerizing landscape of escapism and heartfelt longing. Wry, humorous tales are motivated by the universal desires and fears that unite us all.

A lovers' desert escape to a storied hotel delivers sunbaked noir and an elusive, distorted world where the guests never check out. Mortality and regret are brushed off with a glamourous shrug. Once the couple leaves, life is never quite the same.

A traveler's porthole to an adjacent universe filled with palpable moments that are simultaneously perceptive and strongly felt. Illuminating a deeper reality that savors life's every minute yet is almost too painful and beautiful to bear, it delivers a sense of old 1940s noir like "Sunset Boulevard" or "Casablanca," but with a modern spin.
