Social documentary photographers, Anna Fawcus and Giles Clarke, come together for a joint exhibition at Con Artist Gallery. Two different stories from across the world unite to celebrate the strength and determination of humanity.

Anna Fawcus presents a series of work called Children and the Art of Eight Limbs, documenting the lives of a group of young Muay Thai boxers in Thailand. The images explore the reality of life as a child boxer, both in and outside of the boxing ring.

Giles Clarke presents a selection of recent images from Haiti, a country living in the shadow of a devastating earthquake. As a consummate documentary photographer, his images emerge from a deep commitment to social justice.
