⁠Hello, this is Rob Clayton photographer, b.1966, @clayton.rob and I am sharing with you a selection of my images from “Estate” (1991) and “Estate - Return” (2018).⁠ ⁠ "Estate" 1990/1991⁠ Rooftop Study 1⁠ ⁠ A multi-faceted composition: a decent quality high rise block due for demolition with evidence of little residents’ activity (a singular car) and the surviving low rise high quality housing laid out with thought and planning. This ariel view is, at first viewing, bleak, yet decades of neglect have contributed to the downfall - neglect not only in the physical topography but in the political willingness to house our population to a high standard,⁠ ⁠ inclusively and creatively. The dream briefly became reality and was then abandoned for another private “aspirational” journey.⁠ ⁠ #workingclass #councilhousing #documentaryphotography #British #modernism #post-war #consensus #RobClayton #housing #estate⁠
