Photo by @argonautphoto (Aaron Huey). #SalvationMountain, the 27 year project of artist #LeonardKnight, near Niland, California. Leonard's man-made mountain was built from hay bales, trees, tires, adobe, and hundreds of thousands of gallons of paint. The US Congress registered it as a "folk art site worthy of protection" in 2000. Today I am releasing a book that was made over the seven years I visited The Mountain to document Leonard as he worked and to capture the constantly evolving surface of this amazing Art Environment. You can find the book and many more pictures and videos of Leonard's world at @outsiderbooks!
