Erin Clermont (Erin a.k.a. EB) a freelance writer-editor, has long been fascinated by the culture and variety of motels and the many inventive ways we have found to use them and view them. An avid collector of vintage motel postcards, she began photographing motels in 1990 to document changes in their roadside role. The materials in this exhibit are part of a proposed book project and include text excerpts that enhance the motel experience. Personally, Erin prefers motels with doors that open on the parking lot and a room not next tothe ice machine.
