Matt Henry - Night of the Hunted (signed)

Self Published 2018

“I’ve spent the last two years in the Deep South of America making three fictional southern gothic stories in three different U.S states: Louisiana, Texas, and Georgia. These will make up my second book, ‘Night of the Hunted,’ which will consist of 78 images, an essay, and three short stories. All three draw on American history in the mid-1960s as well as the literary genre of southern gothic itself. Each of the three stories is carefully storyboarded image by image. My artistic practice involves working with a cast of actors for whom I provide a character backstory as well as scene by scene plot. I use period clothes, make-up and hair, and build sets, as well as using locations that I find on road trips or via a film locations scout.” Matt Henry
