Copyright Andrew Clarke 2009I am working on a documentary project with Sam in Hartlepool at a place called Steetley.We are aiming to preserve some part or essence of this magnesium plant. These photographs are some test/location shots that I shot during the week. The photographs hopefully will not only capture the sadness but also the beauty of industrial decline. The Steetley site is somewhere that has to be documented because it is such a visually intense place, and we feel people need to see these images, before the site disappears forever. One of our proposed venues for display is the Bank Gallery in Carlisle, plus another in Hartlepool. Although, this exhibition has the potential to go further afield, with the possibility of showing in more locations across the north of England.
