This mini feature showcases one of the eighteen open submission portfolios selected for inclusion in our printed journal based on the theme of the right to roam

 

The right to roam can affect people in their own local environment, my project focuses on property development apartments sold off- plan, which were abandoned by the developers once the flats were sold during the financial crash. The owners of these luxury coastal properties were promised open family spaces to roam and play but the developers failed to complete the landscaping work leaving families enclosed behind fences and surrounded by scrubland and abandoned building materials over a decade after they moved in. The owners are now trapped in a fenced off landscape with no ability to roam anywhere.

The full set of images from the open submission are shown below (click to view image larger in the original format).
