Sites Unseen is a photography series started in 2009. After visiting many Superfund sites, I was surprised how banal and often imperceptible most of them were. The disconnect between what I was researching and seeing was jarring for me. 

The photographs capture the extreme ordinariness of the locations (they are everywhere). Some are rendered invisible through their neglect. Others have all but erased their Superfund status through new uses over time. The project is an alternative history to the United States. It traces the development and confluence of industry, land use, ecology and environmental health over time.
