Exhibition |
The students, this year, have chosen to voice their displeasure and resentment at the draconian and ill-conceived Section 44 of the Terrorism Act. Many of the students have been accosted and questioned by the police and security guards whilst in the act of taking photographs for assignments in the course. Also, many of the public have confronted the students during their photographic activities accusing them of potential child offences even though they were clearly photographing a tree or derelict buildings etc.
The students aim to produce images in the exhibition, which will reflect the lost 'age of innocence' of photography and the experiences they have encountered.
In this, they have been backed by the national campaign of the same name, which includes that the vast majority of this country’s major practicing advertising and fine art photographers.
