During the 1980s, Sheffield’s Untitled Gallery, now Site Gallery, commissioned a series of photographers to document the city at a pivotal moment in its history. It was a time of great upheaval, which saw the aftermath of the Miners’ Strike, the steel industry’s workforce decimated, mass unemployment and dereliction. But it was also a time in which the city began to imagine its future, one that would include the Meadowhall retail development, the transformation of the lower Don Valley, and the World Student Games.
In this short film, photographer John Davies talks about his year documenting this monumental period of change in Sheffield and his subsequent passion for photographing industries that have had a major role in shaping the landscapes around them.
Davies' work now forms part of an exhibition at Weston Park Museum - The Sheffield Project: Photographs of a Changing City, on display until May 2021.
