urban landscapes

Still Occupied was my first real attempt to photograph the urban landscape, in an extended study of the city of Kingston upon Hull, which was exhibited there in 1983. When I started photographing it around 1975, Hull was in the throes of a massive redevelopment, with many inner city areas being bull-dozed and instant slums being created on its outskirts. It was a process I had been involved in opposing politically in Hulme and Moss Side in Manchester in the previous decade, but as a visitor to Hull I simply took up my camera to record my feelings.
