Harvest From the Deep, Pete Robinson 22nd July - Aug 30th

Pete Robinson is a North Shields-based award-winning wedding photographer but for the past 10 years has been on a mission to record the working and home lives of local fishermen engaged in one of the UK’s most dangerous industries.

Like all the best documentary photographers, he has taken time to get to know the people he photographs, going out with them on fishing trips for ten hours or more, with painfully early starts, rough seas and seasickness to contend with, in the search for pictures showing the harsh realities and camaraderie of life at sea.

This exhibition, HARVEST FROM THE DEEP, includes a selection of photographs that capture the heart and soul of the North Shields fishing industry.
