Consonni’s series, “MARFA TO MIAMI” is based on a a road trip from Marfa, Texas to Miami, Florida all shot on 35mm. On her site, the photographer describes the journey, with a particular adoration for Marfa:

“I started my journey in Marfa. An old town hidden in the far West Texan desert where abandoned hicks’ shacks share perimeter walls with an exclusive art community. The scorching sun transformed every grain of dust in a sharp presence, scratching unforgivably my corneas. The unreal silence made my ears ring, at the point I didn’t know if I could hear the white noise of the desert, or the aliens that are presumed to cause the Marfa lights were finally communicating with me, or I was just imagining it all.
