Exposed
Selected Images from my ongoing Exposed project
Past echoing into the present, buildings and structures falling into disrepair, or showing signs of adaptation. The impermanence of supposedly permanent edifices. How will these structures look in another ten or twenty years? Will they still exist? Resist the elements and remain as they are today? Change into something else entirely?

Process Thoughts Behind the Images Submitted for Werkhaus Zine
I recently submitted six images from my Exposed series for Workhorse Collective’s Werkhaus Zine. I’ll talk about each image and it’s inclusion in the required six images for the submission below! This house is in nearby Rothwell, and was the starting point for the project. I’d driven through Rothwell for years, to and from the kids’ football sessions, ebfore one day glancing across while stopped at the busy junction you can see in the background of the photo.
HS2 is a very good example. Don’t get me wrong, I wouldn’t live anywhere else but the North East.
Yeah it’s an interesting place to be, massive developments in new industry with enough neglect of the existing housing and high streets to balance it out.
These images pretty much sum-up the north of England, decaying and forgotten.
