Other People's Photographs - The making of a very public artwork

Strange Cargo's chunky publication Other People’s Photographs - The Making of a Very Public Artwork is the definitive book about the making of the public art installation comprising personal photographs of family and friends in the streets of Folkestone, Cheriton and Sandgate. Along with photographs from all of the now distinctive signs that have come to characterise the streets of the area, the full-colour book reveals many more of the images that were donated by the public, amounting to over 740 photographs accompanied by the stories behind the images for the very first time. Beautifully printed in A4 landscape format with a foreword by Brett Rogers, director of the Photographers’ Gallery in London, the book begins with the most recent coloured photos, running chronologically back in time as far as the 1800s, capturing the collective experiences that unify us through the generations.
