Of all Chris Killip's bodies of work, the photographs he made between 1982 and 1984 in the village of Skinningrove on the north-east coast of England are perhaps his most intimate and encompassing-of the community he photographed and of himself. "Like a lot of tight-knit fishing communities, it could be hostile to strangers, especially one with a camera, " Killip recalled, "Skinningrove fishermen believed that the sea in front of them was thei...

Late in 2016 Chris Killip's son serendipitously discovered a box of contact sheets of the photos his father had made at The Station, an anarcho-punk music venue in Gateshead open from 1981 to 1985.

It aptly captures the intense poetry of this new collection of photographs by Chris Killip, taken over repeated trips to Ireland between 1993 and 2005.
