About the Book
Within photography there are many characteristics that make up Cultural Identity.
This project aims to produce a documentary series focused on a Gypsy Travelling Community within Pembrokeshire. Kingsmoor Common is based on the concept or notion of sense of place and how this relates to a modern day community that settles in one place for a particular amount of time. My interest comes from ideas about human experiences, in a way these images are constructed with the intent and purpose to comment on preconceived ideas of what a travelling community is like and undermines this nostalgic pre-conception we already associate towards a travelling community.
