Description
Thatcher's Children is a poignant and powerful photographic project by Craig Easton that explores the intergenerational nature of poverty in the north of England. Spanning over three decades, the series documents the lives of the Williams family, whose experiences are deeply connected to the social policy failures of successive governments. The book is based on a long-term project that began in 1992, when Easton was commissioned to take photographs for a French newspaper article about the 'something-for-nothing society'. The resulting images offer a powerful and thought-provoking commentary on the effects of poverty and deprivation on families and communities.
