Salvation Mountain rises from California’s desert like a technicolour volcano, an eruption of paint, straw, and faith. Built by Leonard Knight with no sponsors or grants, just brushes, hands, and thousands of gallons of donated paint, it’s a handmade monument to devotion. In Salvation Mountain, Simon Coley captures this collision of belief and creativity in vivid detail.
For Salvation Mountain, we produced a vibrant, saddle-stitched book that brings Simon Coley’s photography of Leonard Knight’s technicolour desert monument to life. The high-quality Neo Satin stock and B2 Indigo printing showcase the vivid colours and intricate textures, while the square-back saddle-stitch binding keeps the 44 pages and cover clean and tactile.
