Fascinated with endless, dream-like landscapes since his childhood in Mammoth Lakes, California, photographer Joshua Olley’s Cry Like a Man explores the reality of social and economic structures of the American West. Through visuals of vast deserts, mountains and man-made structures, Cry Like a Man observes how humans interact with these harsh environments.

Olley’s work aims to merge a lineage of social documentary with abstract narratives and visuals. An instinctual aesthetic appreciation, rooted in a hyper-vigilant observation of the world, has led to a fascination in social patterns, constructed identities and intuitive human behaviors. He currently lives and works in New York City.
