Doorstep Gallery:
The aim of the project was to raise public awareness to the physical dimensions of the forgotten hamlet of Waterside, often referred to as ‘Wapping’, demolished during the 1930s ‘Slum Clearance Act'.
A collection of photo-copies of the lost community and the hamlet were sealed inside milk bottles and delivered to the forgotten doorsteps for public viewing.
