In this issue we look at the harrowing subject of migrant sea crossings from a Spanish perspective with a poignant project shot in the Canary Islands by group member Maria Tomas Rodriguez.
Mike Longhurst FRPS explores brutalist architecture in London, asking us to question just how brutal it really is.
For the 'In Focus' article we talk with award-winning North England based documentary photographer Joanne Coates about her current work on female working class identity and location called Lie of the Land.
And this issue's 'On the Bookshelf' column reviews the highly-regarded I Burn But I Am Not Consumed by Alicia Bruce, about the controversial building of a golf course on the sand dunes of Aberdeenshire.
I thought it would be interesting to see where our membership is based around the world, so I am grateful to Dave Thorp for obtaining the information and turning it into a lovely map graphic.
please continue to send me any suggestions you might have for content in future issues, especially if you are based outside of the UK. Please email me on decisive@rps.org with your ideas. I look forward to receiving them!
