Georgia O'Keeffe once described her muse New Mexico as "more sky than earth". But as photographer Rob Atkins discovered over two decades and twenty separate trips, beneath that cerulean stretch of ether, the golden sun spills across the sumptuous adobe architecture and the sound of the Rio Grande reverberates throughout the multifaceted geography of northern New Mexico.

Following in the footsteps of visionary artists, including Georgia O'Keeffe and Ansel Adams, Earth River Sky takes readers through the mesas, across the serpentine arcs of the Rio Grande, and between the shadows of vigas, or roof beams, laying on adobe walls of Santa Fe, illuminating the profound beauty of New Mexico. As a photographic travelogue of Atkins's artistic and spiritual pilgrimage, Earth River Sky encapsulates the fundamental elements of fire, earth, water, and air that converge to form the sublime architecture and landscape of northern New Mexico.

Book Features:
  • The author, Rob Atkins, is the former studio manager for Pete Turner, a prolific photographer honoured as one of PDN's 20 most influential photographers of all time
  • Over two decades and twenty separate visits in the making, Earth River Sky highlights the distinct and unparalleled beauty of northern New Mexico that distinguishes it from the rest of the country
