Mia Fair 2026
Applications open for the 15th edition

March 19–22, 2026

At MIA Photo Fair 2026, we're delighted to present a solo booth with Anastasia Samoylova’s recent project, Atlantic Coast. In this new body of work,  Samoylova retraces Berenice Abbott’s 1954 photographic journey along the Eastern Seaboard, documenting dislocation, loss, and a shifting American dream.

With Atlantic Coast, Anastasia Samoylova retraces Berenice Abbott's 1954 photographic journey along US Route 1, documenting transformed communities along the Eastern Seaboard. Seventy years after Abbott predicted how the Interstate Highway System would alter this historic route from Maine to Florida, Samoylova captures the irreversible changes wrought by industrial and commercial development. Working in color and black and white, she examines the displacement and resilience of people and wildlife in a transformed American landscape.

Anastasia Samoylova (Moscow, 1984) is a Miami-based photographer who explores the intersections of environmentalism, consumerism, politics, and the picturesque. Her work has been exhibited internationally, including at the Norton Museum of Art, West Palm Beach, Florida; Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York; Nasher Museum of Art, Durham, North Carolina; C/O Berlin; Victoria and Albert Museum, Dundee, Scotland; Fundación MAPFRE, Madrid and Barcelona; George Eastman Museum, Rochester, New York; Chrysler Museum of Art, Norfolk, Virginia; and Kunst Haus Wien, Vienna. She has published five critically acclaimed books: FloodZone (2019); Floridas (2022); Image Cities (2023), Adaptation (2024), and Atlantic Coast (2026).
