Title'India'
DescriptionThis series contains sets of photographs across numerous projects, including an A4 box of prints and contact sheets labelled ‘Homeless’ from the project referenced in DSS/1/12 – the prints are on matte paper and are often tinted to be slightly blue or red.

A plastic wallet contains A4 colour prints (some of which might be digital collages) which appear to be more abstract, featuring saturated colours, pixelation, and unknown textures. Subjects include individuals, animals and nature.

A brown A4 envelope labelled ‘India’ contains photographic prints and contact sheets, some shot using 120 film and some shot on 35mm film, namely Ilford HP5 Plus, Ilford FP4, and Fuji Superia 200 (the colour negatives from this roll are extremely green toned). Images are commonly taken in the street and compose of portraits of individuals and groups.

There are a few loose 35mm negatives and 6x6 slides. One strip of Kodak Ektachrome E100 slide film depicts three daylight shots of a cinema which is currently screening Titanic.

There are two large colour prints, one depicting ‘Manchester for Miss Universe ‘81’, holding a trophy in a living room (this pageant is also documented in 'Corporate', DSS/1/23). The other depicts an individual crouching under a palm tree by a body of water.
