Photographer GUSTAVO CHAMS explores the Southern Gothic Americana, capturing the beauty of forgotten places, roadsides and rebellion. He brings together the dusty desert, abandoned motels, vintage American culture and a sense of freedom that feels both romantic and lonely. Translating the Americana story into a nostalgic film-style editorial.
