American Origami is the result of six years of photographic research and a statement of over 700 photographs that closely examines the epidemic of mass shootings in American schools, weaving together first-person interviews, forensic documents, and original photographs. The book takes the reader on a visual journey of shared grief, illuminating moments of beauty and foregrounding moral questions embedded in acts of collective healing. The book is uniquely bound together and creates a parallel world between the past and the present, showing the silent landscape intertwined with the personal artifacts created by those left behind.
