Jo Coates Photography Installation
I was asked to photograph the, ‘Our Country Lives’ art installation at Bowlees Visitor Centre in Teesdale. Joanne Coates, an award-winning photographer, produced the installation. The brief was to capture the artwork and people interacting with it.
The resulting work is a unique insight into the everyday life of young people in rural communities. It offers a rare glimpse through the eyes of the youth. Photographs of participants' work were printed on mesh and strung between trees, allowing natural light to filter through the images.
