 foto8 Reviews: Grafters by Colin Jones
Colin Jones began his working life as a dancer with the Royal Ballet before taking up the camera professionally in the early 1960s.
Capturing miners, dockers and ship builders at work, Jones is respectful and distanced, preferring to use natural light to bring his subjects to the fore and to allow the dramatic industrial backdrops to frame his pictures.
These men refuse to be humbled, often looking Jones in the eye when being photographed, their self-respect, despite the physical exhaustion at the end of another shift, intact.
