‘On photographing community resistance’ - an interview.
In this month’s Greater Govanhill magazine, available in Glasgow Southside and online, I’ve been interviewed about photography from my archive of community protest and resistance. Over the years I’ve photographed Govanhill’s Save Our Pool campaign, the spontaneous protests at Kenmure Street in 2021, and the N0 M77 CarHenge environmental protests in 1994/95. All these series have recently been published by myself as zines.
Kenmure Street, 2021
Protest! Protest! Protest! - Following on from my announcement of two days ago that I’m doing new zines ‘Save Our Pool, 2001’ and ‘No M77 Carhenge, 1994/95’, I’ve decided to add a further publication making a trilogy of zines of seminal protests from Glasgow Southside. This third zine will be ‘Kenmure Street, 2021’. All three zines will be on sale soon, please sign up for my newsletter to be the first to hear when they are released.
‘Resistance’ exhibition
I’m delighted that three of my photographs feature in the latest exhibition, Resistance, curated by artist Steve McQueen, at the National Galleries of Scotland.
