About
A travelogue narrated through bodily effluent. A motorway journey described in the call and response of the full bladder. A British road movie – Two Lane Blacktop and Wild At Heart reduced to a trail of piss-filled plastic bottles.
These bottles were found at various service station stops along the route of the M1 motorway.
*Selected by Martin Parr to be held in the Tate / Parr collection.
“Beautifully photographed and published, the series perfectly sums up our modern throw-away cultures relationship to waste … M1 is a comment on photographic seeing, the shared language of photography and the photo book itself." Photomonitor, 2018
