Today would have been Tish Murtha’s 70th birthday. And while it’s a tragedy that she isn’t here to mark the occasion, we can still celebrate her work and the remarkable endeavours of her daughter, Ella, to establish Tish as one of the finest documentary photographers to create images of and with working class people. I’ve just pre-ordered a copy of Vandalism on a Grand Scale, a new book collecting Tish’s work published by @britishculturearchive and featuring words by Ella Murtha and Jen Corcoran @ohnococo_ (who produced @tishmurthafilm). The first 1000 copies will come with an exclusive fine art card featuring the cover, so order one while you can. by @tishmurthafilm

Driven by a commitment to document the impact of deindustrialisation on working class communities in Northeast England in the 1970s and 1980s, British Photographer Tish Murtha used her camera to expose societal inequality. She felt she had an obligation to the people and problems within her local environment, and that documentary photography could highlight and challenge the social disadvantages that she herself had suffered.
