The Newcastle-born photographer Ewen Spencer (1971) spent the last fifteen years documenting the British youth in the inner cities of Britain. His sensitive depictions of his protagonists provide a much more in-depth look than the media offers to us, of a generation often misunderstood. The youth he documents prove to be part of a complex culture, raging with emotions and often filled with creativity.

“Ewen Spencer’s documentary shots of teenagers at play – drinking, pulling, snogging – are both intimate and arresting, as if he is an invisible observer of age-old courtship rituals.” Sean O’ Hagan
