“[He] spent a lifetime photographing in places where he had built relationships, where there was trust and respect” –Gregory Halpern on Chris Killip
What considerations need to be made when recording a place and its people? What new ways of seeing and understanding does contemporary documentary photography offer about the world around us?
This new talk brings together Kirsty Mackay and Dominic Whisson to discuss their respective practices, which use photography to examine social issues that intersect with class, industry and the environment, and the ongoing influence of Chris Killip. Joining them is Chris Killip, retrospective co-curator Tracy Marshall-Grant.
