At the laundry

This is an image I shot on a 4243 mile trip taking me from Detroit to LA in April 2013 in part made possible by Team Detroit. The whole set can be seen on my website http://marcusbastel.com

I'm a London-based German photographer, I’ve studied Fine Art at the Rijksakademie in Amsterdam and Sheffield Hallam University. Over the past 20 years, I have developed a distinctive style that bridges the worlds of fine art and documentary photography, capturing compelling stories through landscapes, cityscapes, and portraits. I document, observe and build community by engaging with people around me, people who occupy the spaces I occupy or travel through. Notable projects are‘It’s a Bad Day piss off’, 'My Trip to Mars' and 'Faces of Mustang'
