Stephen Gill - Billboards

In line with my ideas of photographing buildings & spaces that are exploited for the use of advertising with billboards, I have come across the work of Stephen Gill, who has a body of work that documents the rear sides of billboards scattered across Hackney, accompanied with each image is a line showing what the respective billboard is advertising. I like the overall grey colouring of the images, that evoke the dull and mundane use of these tools that reach out to the general public, also some of the scenes and activities shown behind these billboards provide some points of interest and added colour to the frame.
