I work with contemporary documentary photography and curate DOCUMENTING BRITIAN I also have a big passion for older work, Zak sent me some images from his time working in the 1990s documenting football fans. I loved reviewing the work, all the detail in the photos, the stories, and being taken back to the 1990s. Waters worked alongside Ivor Baddiel gathering photos and stories.
He’s now looking back and putting together a fantastic book that celebrates die-hard football fans, people full of passion for the game for whom football is everything. Collaborating with a brilliant book/zine publishing house Fist Ful of Books who publish and support documentary photography. They have some great publications under their belt. Getting documentary photography published can be really hard and Simon Robinson at Fist Ful is pushing ahead and smashing down some walls to get work seen and onto people’s bookshelves.
