The British teenage photographer presents his debut photography series, entitled “urban.” via SYNTHETICmagazine.  The 17-year-old has honed in on the dilapidation of his local community as a result of local spending cuts and the lack of housing; the series was shot around the declining seaside town of Blackpool with supporting shots taken in the hustling streets of Manchester’s prosperous Northern Quarter.

Taking the images on a mix between 35mm film and DSLR’s the series aims to contrast between the old and the new, the past and the future; and the certain and the unknown.
