About this ebook
The wall included guarded towers, which aimed to separate citizens in East Berlin, from entering or leaving West Berlin. As a consequence, millions of families were spilt, many losing their jobs and unemployment was on the rise.
The outer surface of the West Berlin wall was covered in graffiti and political artwork. This enabled thousands of Germans to express their opinions anonymously, and thereby creating one of the largest canvases in the world.
This photography project was done after twenty five years since the fall of the wall. It was completed over a period of four years, and captures how people, places and architecture has evolved amongst the vicinity around the wall.
The images creates an immersive experience, through the use of geometric and angular style photography, to contrast the usual documentary perspective.
Donations from this book and the website will be given to War Child Charity, which aims to make a difference to thousands of children whose lives have been turned upside-down by on-going conflict around the world.
