ANNE CLEMENTS www.anneclements.com Images from the series ‘Facing the World’. The title is taken from the image of a young football enthusiast, Ali Hussein, who was injured by an American bomb in Iraq when he lost one eye and suffered severe facial injuries. It is thanks to the charity ‘facing the world’ founded by UK cranio-facial surgeons that Ali’s face is slowly being rebuilt. Half the profits from sales of this series of photos will go to this charity. |

STEVE SCHOFIELD www.steveschofield.co.uk My practice is concerned with the hyper-real. I reflect the desire of my sitters to create a utopian existence based on their obsessions and hobbies, each influenced by popular culture. I seek to show how, through this strange sub-cultural world of fandom, like-minded people establish a fictional existence to escape the everyday. Steve works regularly for the Guardian & Times newspapers. |
