Summary

Whilst travelling around Poland researching coal mining Alan Gignoux and Chloe Juno were struck by the faces of politicians beaming at them from colourful political banners wherever they went. They used some Fuji Instax Wide Film left over from another trip to document the banners, zooming in on the features of these potential changemakers. The resulting image series investigates the peculiar visual language of political advertising. In The Powers That Be, these are set against photographs documenting Polish coal mines, whose future would be determined by the results of the election.
