"One of the positives of basically being at home for the last nine months is that I have had lots of time to go through my archives, and every so often I find an image that jumps out that was originally overlooked. Image #2527 is something that I rediscovered recently. I love it’s chocolatey tones. This particular home felt a little bit more modern and less classic than many of the works in my House Hunting collection, which is exactly what I like about it now."

—Todd Hido

Well-known for his photographs of landscapes and suburban housing across the United States, and for his use of luminous color, Todd Hido casts a distinctly cinematic eye across all that he photographs, digging deep into his memory and imagination for inspiration. In Intimate Distance, David Campany introduces the work and looks specifically at Hido’s cinematic influences and the kind of spectatorship the work demands. The book is organized chronologically, showing how his series overlap in exciting, new ways. Also featured are short interviews with Hido about the making of each of his monographs. From exterior to interior, surface observations to subconscious investigations, landscapes to nudes, this mid-career survey reveals insight into Hido’s practice and illustrates how his unique focus has developed and shifted over time.
