Babbacombe'83 Series

Snapshots in an old photo album show pensioners wearing home-made fancy dress. Amongst them are my grandparents, keen ‘old-time’ dancers, partying with their friends on coach trips to seaside resorts in the 1980’s. The Babbacombe ’83 series is inspired by the precious memories of those who are no longer here and a vanished past.
