DescriptionTwo stacked black and white photographs oriented horizontally depicting a man at two different locations. The bottom photograph depicts the man with a notepad, looking at a the “Atomic Motel" sign. He wears a bucket hat, polo shirt, and jeans. He is facing the sign with a pen and paper in hand. The man stands in front of a white fence that turns sharply around the corner of the property. To the left, an older car is parked. The bottom photograph depicts the man standing next to an interpretive sign that reads, "A Visit to The Volcano." The man wears a raincoat with the hood cinched tightly covering his head and brow. One of his eyes is covered.. The background expands into a open landscape touched by a cloudy sky.
