Stills From Life opens with Syd Shelton’s dream of hope that the struggle and the fight for racial and class justice will prevail and it is the driving force dominating the last fifty years of his subjective photographic practice. From that time, he has never been anywhere without his camera in pursuit of what he calls the graphic argument.

“In the vast tapestry of our existence, there are urgent calls globally to awaken from the slumber of the dominant narratives that make up the myths of Western modernity. Critically witnessing the fragility of our interconnected existence, documentary photographs such as those taken by Syd Shelton resurrect the struggles of everyday people wherever they may be situated in the fight for survival in this world.” – Dr Mark Sealy
