Operation Jurassic
The book entitled Operation Jurassic published in association with The Pavement Studio (2018) culminated the eight-year-long personal collaborative photo story by siblings Roxana and Pablo Allison. Its introductory essay was written by curator and educator Pete Brook from Prison Photography.
The publication was launched at the Impressions Gallery Photo Book Fair with an 'In Conversation' with Pippa Oldfield on 20th October 2018 in Bradford. The book is now sold out.
