The Books:
LOCWS:
Working site-specifically places particular demands on an artist not experienced in quite the same way in other fields, in the sense that the work becomes part of the city, not reflective of it.
The site, in this case anywhere in Swansea, becomes your potential studio and material…
… this publication acts both document and further signifier of the strong and sometimes beautiful event that is LOCWS International.

Anatomy Lessons
Karen Ingham, text by Professor Bernard Moxham, former President of the Anatomical Society
Even today universities adhere to a time-honoured hierarchy of professors, readers, lecturers, demonstrators, and technicians - a structure first established in the European anatomical 'theatres' of the 16th and 17th centuries. These were the players in the theatre of anatomy, but inevitably it was the cadaver that took centre stage.
Karen Ingham explores anatomy theatres and dissecting rooms in Edinburgh, Dublin, London, and Padua -and discovers spaces in which the notion of surface is probed and dissected in the search to create structure and meaning - to find what lies beneath. The body is a ghostly presence - yet in the theatre of anatomy even the lifeless stage may be imbued with a sense of drama.

Ha-ha: Margam Revisited
Karen Ingham
Margam Park was the ancestral home of the Fox Talbots, of whom Henry was a pioneering photographer. Some of the earliest photographic images were made there. Steel made Margam Park, whose gothic mansion looks down on the town of Margam and the works formerly owned by the Fox Talbots. Today, it is Margam Country Park, owned by the local authority and a leisure facility open to the public - and to the workers of those steelworks.
A feature of the old park was its ha-ha, a ditch which creates an invisible barrier between mansion and estate. Through stunningly produced photographs this book revisits this birthplace of the form and portrays it anew in contemporary landscape styles. The photographers also explore past class distinctions and the changing social history of both town and estate, a subject addressed in words by one of them, Karen Ingham, and at greater length by Hugh Adams, art lecturer and cultural critic who returns to the scene of his childhood to discuss its artistic and social heritage. The result is a unique and beautiful journey through the history of a place which has significance in industrial, social and photographic history.

The Vetch 1912-2005
The vetch field the final season is a multi-layered pictorial tribute to the last season in the life of the Vetch field, Swansea. This photographic book is the result of a project jointly undertaken by the Vetch 1912-2005 project group and the photography department of Swansea Metropolitan University.
“At the end of the final match of the final season at the Vetch, I looked on as Swansea supporters ripped red plastic seats from the stands and then used these usefully shaped souvenirs as improvised spades to dig lumps of turf from the pitch. The noise from the grounds dismemberment drowned out the celebration of the team that had just beaten Wrexham – this event, the end of the vetch, seemed more important than the victory that evening. This ritual was a cathartic act ninety-three years in the making…”
