Lost Highway examines this forgotten concept of the American Dream by focusing on the abandoned neon signs that remain along the highways of the Southwest. These neon signs call back to the culture of the past eras by showing the style and taste these people utilized to pull traffic off the road and into their accommodations. Through these dreams, the neon sign became iconic across every highway in America continually growing into the 50s. As decades passed these signs stood as personal pillars of history and culture of the road, but now are fading reminders of the famed American roadways. Lost Highway looks to catalog these abandoned signs to bring attention to their preservation so that these bypassed dreams of America are not lost forever.
