WALTER WAYGOOD IN CONVERSATION WITH BRIAN CARROLL MERTHYR TYDFIL, MAY 2024 (Published on Ffoton YouTube channel 13 August 2024) Walter Waygood studied Fine Art at Newport College of Art in the 1970s where he was introduced to the large format camera and, from that point onwards, has incorporated photography into his art, design and photomontage disciplines. Waygood's work was inspired by the German portrait documentary photographer August Sander and the American photographers of the 1930’s Farm Security Administration. Here in Wales, he continues to be inspired by the landscape and people of his home environment Blaenafon, South Wales. His photography provides a commentary of working class life in the area during the 1970‘s. His interest in photography as a form of social commentary led him to make more political statements through his pictures during the miners strike of the 1980’s and he was one of the photographers selected as part of Ffotogallery's 'Valleys Project' in the 1980s. His work is held in the collections of The National Library of Wales, National Museum Wales and The British Library.
