Publisher Note
Confrontation and the light is a collection of street photography that looks at the ideas of renewal and rebirth. The photographs were taken in London, Japan, Spain, Lisbon, and Amsterdam.
The photographs were presented in hardback books collected from charity shops. The meaning of this was to create a new meaning of life, their own history and details would give every copy a unique character. Many of the books are over one hundred years old and have developed a natural beauty in terms of quality, texture and smell that could not be matched by modern production methods.
In total 30 books were made, each one having its original contents partially stamped out by hand and cover painted in black.
