About

Inventory of the Impermanent brings together photographs made among the year-round community of Fishers Island, New York, located at the mouth of Long Island Sound.

Kaelin photographs domestic spaces, lived landscapes, and the traces people leave behind, revealing a life shaped by repetition, solitude, and change.

The photographs in this book offer a rare and nuanced view of a small island community. With quiet precision, Kaelin builds an intimate and deeply contemplative body of work that reflects the rhythms of daily life and the subtle transformations of place over time.
