Big, bright and brash
There are some things you will probably only see in America; and portable chapels, gargantuan plastic donuts (plus obligatory cops) and diners in the shape of hamburgers are some of them. In appreciation of such glaring eyesores - and clearly revelling in the tackiness - photographer David Graham decided to hit the road and travel around his homeland documenting the roadside oddities and small-town curiosities that he found. The result is this cock-eyed celebration of everyday Americana - a gloriously kitsch cross-section of the United States' culture and landscape where everything is big, everything is bright and everything is brash.
