The roar that surrounds Los Angeles is a result of the never ending chains of cars that link innumerable roadways into a single master for the whole metropolitan area. These images were taken in Los Angeles and surrounding suburbs where the freeways are a synecdoche; one of the few parts capable of standing for the whole. The photographs reveal the more intimate ways that we live with freeways. They are ubiquitous, creating boundaries and soundtracks for our yards and neighborhoods and shrinking the scale of cozy suburban landscapes into drive-byes of monopoly houses dwarfed by concrete monoliths.
