Body Politics. From Welfare State to Personal Wellbeing
View works

The Hyman Collection has many works which address the human body, mental and physical health, mortality and vulnerability.

With the Collection covering many different phases in British photographic history, we are in a position to see how approaches to these subjects have changed over the past 80 years, and how priorities and perspectives have shifted as photographic practice has moved from the social and the political to the personal and autobiographical.
