Epicly Later'd

The best of the celebrated blog Epicly Laterd, Patrick ODells intimate photo-diary dedicated to documenting the adventure and mayhem of the 2000s NYC skate/music/downtown scene. In 2004, well before the advent of social media as a global phenomenon, photographer Patrick ODell launched the celebrated blog Epicly Laterd. Dedicated to documenting the adventure and mayhem of the NYC skate/music/downtown scene, the site distinguished itself with its offhand wit, its irreverent cast of characters, and an intimate photo-diary format years ahead of its time. Nearly two decades later, the impact of ODells work can be appreciated in full: its influence is now apparent across photo, art, and skate culture, and the original photographs still astonish. Compiled by ODell and editor Jesse Pearson, Epicly Laterd collects the best of the blog into a body of work thats evocative, funny, and wildly compelling. "Wayward youth and joy and oblivionhere are all the moments I remember and many that I dont! Patricks exacting eye for the fractured beauty in our shared chaos captured it all." - Chlo Sevigny
