Justin Tyler Close, I’M NOT HOME, 2025

I’M NOT HOME is a 204-page autobiography created by visual artist Justin Tyler Close and designed by Studio Alabama.

“My entire life, I’ve been moving from house to house, country to country, leaving one home in search of another, feeling a part of many places but attached to none.”

In 2019, Justin’s house caught fire, destroying everything except one box filled with an intimate collection of works: photographs, collages, poetry, and love letters. With this book, we archive the memories.

“In many ways, this book is now my home.”
