Photographer
Amanda Crowther was commissioned by Chol Theatre during the
research process to document the area, its people and those
who contributed to the project. Subsequently many of the archival
images were integrated into the multimedia stage premier at
The Lawrence Batley Theatre in March 2008 and exhibited in
the foyer.
Twelve of the photographs were selected by The Huddersfield
Literature Festival as a focus for their annual Creative Writing
Competition. The competition asked the public to write and
submit a poem, a song, lyrics, script or short story in response
to one of the competition images.
This exhibition features the three winning entries from the
competition and their relative images plus a selection of
other photographs taken from the extensive Beast Market portfolio.
We hope that you find something you recognise of Huddersfield
in the thoughts and images this exhibition has to offer.
