Postcards Home
by Ingrid Pollard


Featuring ten series of photographs by Ingrid Pollard with her own commentary, this is the best of her influential work. Using a mixture of 19th century and contemporary photographic techniques, Pollard combines her appreciation of the beauty of England with enquiries into the country’s legacy of colonialism. With a short essay by Mark Haworth-Booth, Director of Collections at the Victoria & Albert Museum in London.

Ingrid Pollard (b. 1953) grew up in Georgetown, Guyana, before moving to London. Beginning her career contributing photos to Spare Rib and other feminist publications in the 1980s, she first came to public attention in 1987 with the series Pastoral Interlude addressing the experience of black people in the landscape of Wordsworth’s Lake District. Pollard has been widely exhibited in Europe and America, including at the Victoria & Albert Museum, Photographers’ Gallery and National Portrait Gallery (London), Museum of Modern Art (Oxford), NGBK (Berlin) and Camerawork (San Francisco).

“Some of the most profound works in recent photography.” Chika Okeke, Journal of Contemporary African Art
