Words, Facts and Quotes for Jeffery Wolin Inspired Work

These are some of the words, facts and quotes I will use for my Jeffery Wolin inspired work. I have chosen to choose text that relates to housing in Croydon to print onto my images in the darkroom. I will be using acetate as an overlay to put the text on and will arrange the text so that it looks like graffiti over the images of the abandoned destroyed car park.  

"WITH an increasing number of families in emergency accommodation, social and private rental supply drying up and a benefits cap around the corner, Croydon's housing system is under intense pressure".

"The number of households living in emergency housing in Croydon has risen six-fold in the last four years, from 61 in 2008 to 441 at the end of 2012".
 
"The shortage of available housing has contributed to a significant rise in homelessness.
Croydon council received more than 2,200 homelessness applications in the past 12 months and placed 1,470 households in temporary accommodation, of which record numbers are in emergency housing such as hostels and bed and breakfasts".


"Housing is our number one problem". - Croydon Council chief executive
"There is a housing crisis in Croydon". "Croydon has become a hotspot in terms of a lack of housing availability".
