Abstract
Our Faces, Our Spaces: Photography, Community and Representation features photographic work taken between 1977 and 1992 by children and young people who were members of Mount Pleasant Photography Workshop, Southampton. The book presents their work within the context of both a personal overview and that of a critical and theoretical position. The photographers offer a view and interpretation of their world which deals with social, cultural, religious and political connections of that period of time and reflect upon the impact that the project had upon their lives.
The contributors also include Stephen Foster, Director of the John Hansard Gallery, Southampton; Visiting Professor Sunil Gupta, artist, writer and cultural activist; Sian Bonnell, Associate Professor of Photography at Falmouth University: Christopher Pinney, Professor of Anthropology and Visual Culture at University College London.
