Up, Up, & Away is an artist book with a collection of photographs made in the summer of 2019 on the road from Vancouver, BC. to the Arctic Ocean in Tuktoyaktuk, NWT. This book is a conversation with writing from Paige Taylor White and her partner Justine, through their experiences travelling together as a queer couple.

Paper maps, flat tires, and gasoline. In 2018 the new Inuvik-Tuktoyaktuk Highway was completed to extend the Dempster highway to the Arctic Ocean for summer road access. This project documents life on the road under the midnight sun, while searching for wide open spaces in the era of social media. This 10,000+ kilometer road trip is an experiment in art and self documentation through the eyes of a young photographer exploring the tropes of adventure and the unknown.

Up, Up, & Away is published and sold online by Little Cabin Press, 2023.
