Inspired by the U.S. ‘New Colourists’ and British documentary tradition, she first gained attention for Work Stations: Office Life in London (1988), a study of office culture in Thatcher’s Britain. Her collaborative projects Country Girls (1996 – 2001) and Pictures of Linda (1983 – 2015) challenge preconceptions about rural life in England, while My Mother’s Cupboards and My Father’s Words (1999) and Cockroach Diary (1996 – 99) expose dysfunctional relationships within the family home.Photographer &amp; Curator, Robert TaylorFor the last 15 of his 30+ year career Robert has specialised in commissioned collections of portraits of women of outstanding achievement in STEM (science, engineering and maths) for the UKRC, and the distinguished women alumni of several Oxford University Colleges including Hertford, Trinity, Harris Manchester, and Lincoln.Robert Taylor came to photography via the British Royal Air Force, the English Bar, and publishing in Nigeria.
