Commissioned by the Lighthouse Gallery The Street by Andrew Jackson and Dean Kelland takes archive photographs, interviews, and film to explore historical and contemporary debates on immigration in Britain, using racial tensions of the 1960s in Smethwick as a starting point.

The Street presents stories, memories and photographs from two culturally different perspectives. By interpreting what they have found in the archives, combining fact and fiction throughout, Jackson and Kelland encourage the audience to question what they see, hear and understand in the exhibition.

This work plays on our faith in archives, photographs, history, and documentary and asks people to come to their own conclusions.
