11. Simon Roberts: Landscape Art as Social Commentary

  • Sumário

  • Peter speaks to the Brighton-based British photographer Simon Roberts about his experience photographing England’s social landscape in the decade preceding Brexit. Whilst Simon’s unique large format perspectives draw their significance from a long and rich tradition of British landscape representation, they demonstrate a challenge to traditional stereotypes and idealised cliches of Britain’s visual geography. Simon’s photographic depictions of Britain's high streets, beach resorts, national parks and leisure piers reveals an England which Turner or Constable would not recognise. Rather, Simon's work exists as a critical social commentary on the conflicting perspectives of Britishness from the midst of Britain’s post-industrial, post-imperial landscape of the early 21st century.
