John Davies began photographing both the rural and urban landscape in the 1970s and this book brings together his early images alongside new contemporary works evisiting the same landscapes - mapping both equilibrium and change. These pairs of images are made from the same vantage point, and tell of the alterations made by human activity and bear witness to cultural and social changes over nearly four decades.

Born in County Durham in 1949, John Davies grew up in coal mining communities until he moved to Nottingham in 1972 to study photography. His first commission to work outside of the UK was in 1984 for an international building exhibition in the Kreuzberg district of Berlin where he was struck by the impact of the Berlin Wall dominating this part of the city. In 2019 he revisited Berlin to retrace his earlier images, thirty years after the fall of this powerful symbol of the Cold War. His work is in major public and private collections including the V&A, London; MoMA, New York; National Gallery of Art, Washington; Deutsche Börse, Frankfurt; FNAC and Pompidou Centre, Paris.
