Daniel Shea – Plume
www.dsheaphoto.net and founding member of Dreamboats Collective; featured on the 17th issue of Fraction Magazine.
Plume is a photographic exploration of Southeast Ohio and its unusually dense concentration of coal-fired power plants. The project serves as a follow-up to the work I made in 2007 in Appalachia, Removing Mountains, which focused on mountaintop removal, a particularly pervasive form of coal mining. Plume follows this coal up river to Ohio, where it is being burned to generate electricity. View an extended statement here.
