Invisible Commute Photographs by Lauren Leja Review and More

Photographer (and writer) Lauren Leja works with her eyes, her feet and her smartphone.  Like many, she travels to work every day.  For Ms. Leja is it a particularly long commute, and a good share of it is walking on the streets of Boston.  Leja's commute is by bus, subway and trudge. While most commuters rest in a fog until their stop, she is alert as a native tracker.  See sees things others do not.  They become her subjects.  This has been her pursuit for a decade.

The result is small and perfectly framed spontaneous moments.  Her still lifes are temporal and extemporaneous,  Lauren brings the same discipline of her work routine to her silent tiny masterpieces.  For years I have encouraged Lauren to collect them, either in print or on the web.  Finally, her new book Invisible Commute celebrates what I have been fortunate, at times, to find in my mailbox.

I was proud to write the introduction to Invisible Commute.  I am equally thrilled to see them collected in print!  Each layout page is visual symmetry and each image is a small puzzle of sorts.

At this time, I believe Lauren Leja is selling the book in select locations around Boston, but the best way to obtain is to write her directly at Invisiblecommute@gmail.com

Currently, each book includes a gift, and it is a good one! The limited edition is best ordered directly from Lauren Leja.
