David Knox graduated from the Southeastern Center for the Arts and started his career as a photographer in the advertising industry specializing in fashion and corporate work. In the summer of 1999 a workshop in Penland, North Carolina exposed him to the ideal printing method for his evolving niche of black and white photography: structures and landscapes from the 19th and early 20th century American South.

Traveling the back roads of the Southeast with a 1966 Polaroid Land Camera, he documents the vanishing remains of a region whose structures and landscapes are as peculiar and haunted as its history. Click on any image for more information.
