research : Richard Billingham





The image to the right shows ray with a black eye showing the violence in the family. 
His images were taken on the cheapest film he could find, this provided brash
 colours and bad focus which adds to the authenticity and frankness.Ray, his father, and his mother Liz, appear at first glance as grotesque figures, with the alcoholic father drunk on his home brew, and the mother, an obese chain smoker."The door to family life, usually closed, was kicked wide open. The very private was becoming very public."

I love the way the images look the effect is great,
i really like how 'real' they are. None of the images are staged.
