overspill

A portrait of a town and a relocated population

In the mid-twentieth century Glasgow's slum clearance programme saw many families rehoused in housing schemes in towns miles from their home city.

 

Overspill is an ongoing project which considers the shifting relationship between incomers and their environment in and around Denny, before and during the Covid crisis.
