Brian Ellwood The American Motel Project is dedicated to capturing the last vestiges of the vanishing mid-20th century culture through its motel signs. As these works of art succumb to oxidation, bulldozers, and the austerity of gentrification we have attempted to provide a medium for their preservation. These photographs capture the coming architectural ghosts of the American West.
