About What the Rain Might Bring
TBW Books presents What the Rain Might Bring, the debut photobook by Dylan Hausthor. The edition is designed as a physical object: a minimalist cover with a simple title, black edge and spine printing, and no internal text. The result is a quiet, immersive read where sequencing and material choices carry the narrative.
The photographs are large-format black-and-white images that move between human presence and the nonhuman world. Hausthor frames nature as a site of storytelling, folklore, faith, and performance. Motifs include animals, gatherings, and close observation of plants and textures, with an intentionally unstable line between document and staged scene—central to What the Rain Might Bring as a contemporary photobook.
The book is anchored by seven delicate gatefolds, functioning as recurring breaks in rhythm and scale. What the Rain Might Bring will appeal to readers interested in TBW Books, experimental documentary strategies, and black-and-white photography with ritual and mythic undertones.
About Dylan Hausthor
Dylan Hausthor (b. 1993, Vermont) is an artist based on an island off the coast of Maine. They hold a BFA from Maine College of Art and an MFA from Yale School of Art. Hausthor has received major recognition including a Nancy Graves fellowship (2019) and a Guggenheim Fellowship (2024), and has been nominated and shortlisted across international photography awards programs.
Their practice combines photography with performance, research-driven storytelling, and field-based attention to places and species. Hausthor’s work has been exhibited internationally, and their books are held in the permanent collection of MoMA. Alongside art-making, they teach topics including ritual practice, mushroom foraging, and photography—contexts that inform the constructed documentary tone in What the Rain Might Bring.
