Michael Knapstein’s photographs are nuanced and insightful portrayals of the American Midwest. “There is a certain magic to [the region],” he says. “Honest. Modest. Understated. Sometimes unappreciated. Often overlooked…Even though it continues to change and disappear around me, I think of the Midwest as being classic and timeless in nature… If you pause for a moment, perhaps you’ll feel the humid air of an approaching thunderstorm or catch the smell of fresh laundry as it dries in the summer breeze. That is [the Midwest to me].”
