Basingstoke 1985 – 86

Colour photographs with text captions, a critical observation of Basingstoke life during the late 80’s.
Includes urban landscapes, home interiors, people, office life, leisure and shopping.
Captions taken from publicity material, interviews and newspaper articles.
The work was all made during the final year at West Surrey College of Art & Design (now University for the Creative Arts) and demonstrates the commencement of Fox’s interest in the use of satire created through a combination of image and text and influenced by her interest in both comedy and literature. This work was made whilst Fox was studying with Martin Parr, Paul Graham and Karen Knorr and distinctly reflects the teaching of this influential group.
