New England's story and history is best on display inside its burial grounds.
Exploring the customs and cultures of the region's past helps showcase the importance of New England to America over the centuries. Presidents, “witches,” enslaved peoples, and all of those in between can be found from Connecticut to Maine.
The landscape of these states has shifted from a sprawling wooded space to lush and ample farmland and bustling cities. Inside the graveyards, cemeteries, and burial plots, war wages between memories and time. Now four centuries deep, these memorials are fighting to survive. The punishing weather of the area and urban sprawl combine to push these memorials back into the ground to be lost forever. Through photographs we can capture these cherished lost ones and give them the chance to live on in a new way.
Across New England, marble, bronze, granite, wood, and other stones stand and fight to maintain the memory of those buried below them. Through Buried New England, those lost to time have the ability to live on as remembrances
Casey Fredette is a self-taught photographer whose passion for the art began at an early age with a polaroid camera. Amidst a nomadic childhood, photography provided him the means to capture moments that would otherwise be lost to time and allow them to live forever. His recent relocation to Crystal River, a unique gem along Florida's Nature Coast, has given him the chance to make his passion a priority. While exploring the cities and cemeteries of the American Southeast, contrasting to those of his early New England upbringing, sparked a year-long project to preserving the memory of those otherwise forgotten.
