Govanhill

 

Description

Simon’s stunning portrayal of this lively and ever changing neighbourhood beautifully manages to capture the variety and vibrancy of a whole suburb, while simultaneously creating piercingly honest portraits of the residence, that touch the heart of the viewers.

Murphy’s’ portraits captivate with an elegant and elaborate appeal, which contrast the scenery of the back alleys and streetcorners where they were taken.

The intimacy and honesty he manages to transport through his Photos, reveal the connections and trust formed between him and his subjects. As a Govanhill resident himself, he wonderfully embodies a serene feeling of community and coherency.
