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
Diane, Single Mother, Wilson House
Diane became a friend during my work and invited me into her flat and introduced me to some of her friends too. A very kind and decent young woman who, over twenty-five years later, I met up with again at an exhibition of my work on Lion Farm Estate in 2019 as part of the #Multistory “Blast” Festival. The image reflects many socio-economic norms of the day: parenthood, household chores, technology, smoking indoors and home making. The everyday is portrayed yet the child seeking the light through the door speaks of hope, progress and provision.
