Re-imag(in)ing WORK explores the changing face of work in Europe, Africa and South America.  Themes addressed include productivity, the decline of traditional and manual industries and rise of service industries, the impact of new technologies upon labour, constructed sites of commerce and controlled natural environments, migrant workers and migration and identity and opportunity in a newly expanded EU.

The Changing Faces Collection comprises works by eighteen photographers created between 2004-2007, commissioned by IPRN (International Photography Research Network), coordinated by the University of Sunderland with key partners Museum Folkwang, Essen, Paradox/Leiden University, the Netherlands, Dom Fotografie, Slovakia and University of Jyväskylä, Finland. A selection of these photographers are presented in this exhibition.
