Gypsy Horse Fair Portraits





Taking a portable studio to a Gypsy Horse Fair I invited people in to have their photograph taken. I'm interested in exploring self-representation and identity within the gypsy and traveller communities, in particular the rigid separation of gender roles amongst the younger generations.

    1. Hi Shaun!
      Did I take a photograph of you that day? It was quite a while ago... Can you remember if you were with any other people, or any other details, so that I can have a look to see if I have a photo of you :) Cheers
