Seamstress

Part of the Exiles series of photos. The central performer in Seamstress is one of many women sewing in a factory. A light pulls her out of the crowd. Her mind is elsewhere, in her unspoken past, as she looks at a picture of Guru Nanak. The performer wore the clothes and jewellery of her late mother who used to work in sewing factories like this when she arrived to the UK. The sewing factory itself is on its last legs, run by a distant relative who’s fallen on hard times.

Seamstress was one of two pictures to win the GMC Trust First Prize (2023) awarded by The RBSA Photography Exhibition. The Bridge and Seamstress, were selected for Earth Photo 2023, the international competition and exhibition run by the Royal Geographical Society and Forestry England.
