Games (2010-2012)

Photographs taken on the same piece of film over 2 years (2010-2012) of contrasting images depicting rapid urban development ahead of the London Olympic Games and existing residential areas surrounding the site. Many homes sit empty on the neighbouring Carpenters estate despite reports of 1 in 4 Newham residents being on the Council's housing waiting list. In September 2014 the Focus E15 campaign group occupied housing on the Carpenters Estate to highlight the housing crisis and call for housing solutions that are affordable.
