Byker Revisited
Byker Revisited
Sirkka-Liisa Konttinen
A portrait of life in the Byker Wall Estate, capturing the changing community that replaced the original streets Konttinen photographed in the 1970s.
Between 2003 and 2009, Sirkka-Liisa Konttinen returned to Byker, the Newcastle community she had first photographed in the 1970s. Her earlier work documented the terraced streets where she lived, before they were demolished to make way for the Byker Wall Estate. Byker Revisited focuses on the people living in the new development, forming a portrait of a changing community shaped by architecture, migration and everyday life.
