Whilst at the Kirkgate studios I was recommended to check out Casey Orr's work. She is a local photographer and University lecturer who lives in Leeds and often works closely with the community. One of her projects that has interested me the most was 'Hands' where she photographed people's hands including those of the workers at the textile mill and displayed them at Armley Mills.
I find it really interesting that as soon as you see a snapshot of a person, or a part of the body, you immediately start to judge and develop opinions and stories about the person being represented.
