To capture the unsettling and oppressive atmosphere of 1984 for these promotional photos, I climbed deep into the Victorian skeleton of the along with cast members Jack Charlton (Winston) and Jessica Hardwick (Julia).
We focussed on the tension between their connection and the constant threat of danger; intimacy and defiance against vulnerability and suspicion.
I cut out the ambient daylight with spotlights as harsh as the regime the characters rebel against, building a texture of smothering darkness in conflict with piercing light. A fragile and claustrophobic moment secretly shared by these two characters.
An incredible cast bringing to life Chris Hannan’s chilling new adaptation of Orwell’s ever-prescient novel; catch it in the before it goes on tour to and theatres.

I’ve enjoyed the Brutal Glasgow Trail created by Glasgow City Heritage Trust Seeing Natalie - Glasgow Architecture Illustrations ‘s gorgeous illustrations around the city, and having some lovely chats with people in each venue; including one of the Librarians at Anniesland who used to work in the Barbican, one of my favourite places to visit.
Today is the final day to grab a booklet from GCHT on Bell St or from Anniesland Library and take part. Thanks GCHT for sending me mine.
Swipe through to see some photos from when I documented the Brutal Glasgow exhibition, curated by Rachel Loughran featuring Natalie - Glasgow Architecture Illustrations ‘s prints.
I’ve also included a shot of the A Listed Anniesland Court, a high rise unlike any other in Glasgow. When seen from the north, one of its key design features stands out - the many storeys are divided into 7 levels, in effect creating 7 tenements stacked vertically.
I’m very fond of this view, as I am brutalism in general. I completely understand its detractors, its raw concrete and bold lines can feel aggressive or even alien. But that’s exactly why I love it - it punctuates the city scape, like spicy salsa or a shot of whisky.
An entire city of concrete towers would definitely feel oppressive, but when dropped in amongst buildings of varied styles and eras, and a complex like the Barbican or Anniesland Court can really shine.
