Andrea Allan
The Village
"In the summer we would cycle to the next village over. They decided to relay the gravel path. This time with tar and gravel. That night I sat and scrubbed their improvement out of my knee." As the city focuses on the idea of community the village starts to fragment. Its boundaries become blurred by the influences of infrastructure, technology and expansion. The work explores the myths created by popular picture postcard portrayals of the English village. The accompanying text refers to personal narratives, a combination of overheard conversations and the personal experiences of the photographer herself.
