Phil Clarke-Hill
4 October - 2 November 2008

Phil Clarke-Hill photographs Lustrabotas, the hundreds of shoe shine boys who work and live on the streets of La Paz, Bolivia. The boys sell a street newspaper, wearing a mask while doing so to protect their dignity. These photographs operate both as social documentary and art photography.



This exhibition was part of Photomonth 08, the largest photography festival in the UK.
