In the summer of 2017 Capitán took a road trip across the American West, following in the footsteps of many writers and artists for whom its expansive frontier has been as much existential as physical. Indeed, the idea of losing (or finding) oneself on a such a journey is almost as old as literature itself. Drawn to abandoned and derelict buildings, evidence of the failure of humanity to conquer the landscape and take root everywhere, Capitán sought to document this entropic process as both inevitable and natural: ‘In the end’ she as she puts it, ‘everything disappears’.
