Coalfaces -Tina Carr and Anne Marie Schone
 
 
 

 

 

 

This arresting series of documentary photographs show the life and
landscape of five small settlements in South Wales.These communities in
the Afan Valley, after the pit closures, had to deal with high levels of
unemployment and found themselves with severe adjustment problems.
Over more than ten years,Tina Carr and Annemarie Schöne worked
with the residents of the valley to document the place they call 'home'.
These photographs, gritty, beautiful, empathetic, sad and humorous,
reflect a hardy and feisty attitude, shared by the residents despite the
adversity they are forced to face, and provide us with a much needed
reminder of a community all too easily forgotten about.
