Brutal Sheffield is a photographic study by Martin Dust. It’s a record of the architecture and brutal nature of his home city and a tribute to the influence its changing landscape has had on his life.
Brutal Sheffield is a portrait of an environment and an excavation of memory, a trek through the city that provides the context and inspiration for so much of Martin’s art.
Whether he’s uncovering lost rehearsal rooms, remembering ex-record shops, or capturing the poetry of concrete and glass, his photographic world is one in which sullen-faced car parks can conceal fragmented recollections - and become the accidental backdrops to our lives.
