The Absurdity of the Unoccupied

Gerard Hilderly Photography

Bank House Bristol, vacant for 31 years and photographed to portray the absurdity of  properties remaining unoccupied, whilst people sleep outside.   

 

L

Socially engaged documentary photography, exploring how everyday observations of inequality alter  when adding the social     construct of an overarching  invisible power. 

 

Gerard Hilderly photographs the reality of living without shelter by highlighting  the effect that financial  power has over the the property market . The ethically driven series of photographs deliberately avoids identifying individuals and merges absurdity with reality to foster wider questions.  The absurdity is not the visual abstraction, but the spiraling damaging social situation.
