Amanda Jobson Graduated from University of Westminster in 2008 with BA (hons) Photographic Arts

“Since graduating Amanda has worked on self initiated projects on the east Sussex coastline. Her most recent photographs on the Winch Huts, Hastings are to be exhibited at the WPS Gallery, Old Town Hastings in September 2009

The Winch Huts project started in the winter of January 2009. Throughout the months that followed into early spring I continued to return. The huts all looked the same except for the paraphernalia that exists from the individual commercial fishermen that continue to work from the winch huts. I placed my camera in exactly the same height and position facing the cold light, which flooded through from the English Channel. I looked for a sense of uniformity and repetition amongst the working lives of the fishing community.”
