Lockdown
D-Day 75 (2019)
Lockdown is a subset of the Representations and Reenactments – a series of images capturing original vehicles, ships, aircraft, equipment, reenactments and modern-day representations of the D-Day landings.
The presence of many world leaders (including US President Donald Trump) plus the heightened threat of a terrorist attack resulted in very significant levels of security. It’s likely that this level of security represented the closet approximation to Portsmouth in 1944 that I am likely to experience in my lifetime.
Markings Series
Markings represents a long-term project that focuses on the D-Day commemorations that take place in Portsmouth, including the D-Day 60, 70 and 75 anniversary events.
