    'rubbish' was a collaborative project between photographer, Stephen Norman Young, and me. 'rubbish' highlighted a rubbish stituation currently happening in Edinburgh and featured a series of posters that appeared all over Edinburgh, an exhibition of print design and photography, and a book. 

    ​

    'rubbish' is destined to become an archive of current life on the iconic Stead's Place on Leith Walk, Leith. There is a proposed demolition of the entire red sandstone block from the 1930s, in its place modern 7-storey buildings. A community is being made homeless, being moved on.

    ​

    A photography and print design exhibition took place during the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in August 2018. Two 'rubbish' books were first launched during, and were an accompaniment to, 'rubbish' the show.

    ​

    All design and publishing for 'rubbish' was carried out by me.
