Description
Dispersal considers the period of change in Stratford, East London prior to the 2012 Olympic Games. Though often represented as a post-industrial `wasteland', this part of East London was a melting pot of over 200 trades and industries. Photographers Marion Davies and Debra Rapp documented 60 of these small businesses - from belt-making, zinc- galavanising, kebab-making and salmon smoking - before they were forced to move from the area in 2007. These unique photographs reveal the atmosphere and processes of the workplace alongside a short account of the personal histories of each business.
