The A41 Project
How can we explore the consequences of inequality through photography? That was the question Colin McPherson and local equality groups along the route of the A41 set out to answer… and now all their hard work has come to fruition.
The A41 Project: Visualising Inequality was exhibited this year at The Public in West Bromwich (Feb-May 2013).
The project’s images have been created by photographer and visual artist Colin McPherson with contributions from equality groups in the West Midlands, Merseyside, London and Milton Keynes. Colin explained: “Working on this project in tandem with The Equality Trust has allowed me to explore through my photography one of the most important social and political phenomenons of today. The images I have created are ‘social landscapes,’ photographs which simultaneously try to show the effects of our actions while asking questions about why inequality exists.” Further exhibitions are planned in Milton Keynes, Birkenhead and London.
