The North American frontier is an enduring symbol of romance,
rebellion, escape, and freedom. At the same time, it's a profoundly
masculine myth-cowboys, outlaws, Beat poets. Photographer Justine
Kurland reclaimed this space in her now-iconic series of images of
teenage girls, taken between 1997 and 2002 on the road in the
American wilderness. "I staged the girls as a standing army of
teenaged runaways in resistance to patriarchal ideals," says
Kurland. She portrays the girls as fearless and free, tender and
fierce. They hunt and explore, braid each other's hair, and swim in
sun-dappled watering holes-paying no mind to the camera (or the
viewer). Their world is at once lawless and utopian, a frontier
Eden in the wild spaces just outside of suburban infrastructure and
ideas. Twenty years on, the series still resonates, published here
in its entirety and including newly discovered, unpublished images.
