"British photographer Nick Waplington spent four years documenting the daily lives of two working-class families on a council estate in Nottingham, England. Rather than accepting the contemporary photographic conventions of social realism, Waplington recorded the lives of these families, capturing an intimate narrative with both sadness and unexpected humour. These photographs taken in the late 1980s in England, where the people had already gone through ten years of Conservative government, the collapse of industry, the rise in poverty and unemployment. The two families that Waplington had photographed had been living witnesses of this difficult time."
