    About the Book

    Edit

    The Gift is a piece of visual recording and storytelling that reaches into the depths of normalcy, certain to find its manifold inversions. With carefully calibrated doses of everydayness and disillusion. The Gift is a story of life and death, of desire and the inability to avoid it; a story of betrayal and deception. A story of self righteous trusted people in society assuming the worst to to a tainted past and justifying their acts towards it with murder and self-destruction brought on by the brutal honesty of repeatedly failed attempts at self-fulfilment. It is revenge and suffering brought from a perpetrators abusive past. Someone always pays the price and its usually the innocent that become collateral damage. The gift is a truth so hard to comprehend that when it becomes known it will shatter your reality. Why do innocent people have to die to change things? Why do the innocent always suffer?

    Stephen Shaw
    Blackpool Lancashire UK

    Stephen Shaw (born 1976, year of punk) was raised on Grangepark, Blackpool in the North West of England. He is an MA photographer at Central Lancaster University, and has a BA first class honours in photography. Shaw is frequently published and specialises in symbolism, Social Documentary and Portraiture, working within street / documentary. Shaw's images are motivated by pain and memorialism. He has great empathy with a desire to research failed human constructs having lived a darker side of life that he frequently questions and talks about with truth and a deep understanding of the people that inhabit its fabric, hoping to help them. This is his driving force to evolve knowledge through the photographic medium, bringing subjects he cares about to the attention of a wider audience. "Your creation destroyed by an innocent target. You’ve become what you set out to destroy".
