About this product

Product Information

Writing in the Sand is a photographic study of the beaches and beach towns of Northern England by Finnish-born photographer Sirkka-Liisa Konttinen, whose work has attracted considerable renown. The New Statesman has described her photographs as master pieces of representation -- political as well as photographic , while New Society has said of her: Here is a sensibility, a wisdom of the eye and the heart that makes this collection unforgettable . Konttinen holds the singular distinction of having had her work toured in 1985 in China by the British Council as the first British photographic exhibition there since the Cultural Revolution. A documentary film about the making of Writing in the Sand has also been released to much acclaim as well: which the London Times calls Poetic, uproarious, and thunderously nostalgic .
