First of all, sorry for my English, this is not my first language, hope my point is understendable anyway.
Hope you guys are joking. This work is wonderful!
The author didn’t want to show misery and pain (although “It’s a hard life,” he says).
People in the pics are no traditional gypsies, but a tribe that CHOOSE to live this way.
It’s more about lifestyle than about etnical heritage.
In fact he refers to they subjects as “Dickensian punks, who travel the English countryside in horse-drawn caravans”.
Quoting the author ” a group of rag-tag teenage rebels who had abandoned the city for the country, living out of double-decker buses. “
Hey, of course it’s not the same stuff as other works involving the gypsy people. (They are not)
There is even a pic of the supermodel Kate Moss in there, dressed like one of them.
So enjoy this wonderful work, think about this romantic and fashinating lifestyle, and why not: enjoy even the aesthetics of this wonderful world.
Started out doing photography at the age of 6 using an uncle's old 1940 kodak brownie box camera. At 15 years of age, I decided to buy my very own 1975 Praktica SLR camera. I now shoot with a Nikon D850. I do unpaid TFP and commercial paid work.
