On The Road

When

Tue, 9 April 2024 - Sat, 29 June 2024.

Description

Contemporary photography of the Gipsy, Roma and Travelling Communities at Appleby Horse Fair and across the British Isles.

David Wright’s photography takes a broad look at people and families and the communities we create for ourselves. Through David’s lens, we see the Traveller community up close, sometimes wary, often welcoming, and always proud of their own ways of life.

Throughout his career, David has photographed a range of ethnic minorities and cultural sub-groups, from Travellers to religious communities and morris dancers to mods, trying to capture the Modern Tribes of England who make up our 21st century society.
