THE Govanhill community on the south side of Glasgow is one of the most fascinating, and certainly the most diverse, in Scotland.
Sitting between the riverside area of the Gorbals – historically a point of arrival for immigrants – and the expansive public resource that is Queen’s Park, this working-class district can boast that at least 88 languages are spoken by its inhabitants.
Murphy’s individual portraits are as respectful as many a Renaissance painting of a king or queen. Take the picture of the young girl named Sara, for instance. There is something disarmingly gentle in this portrait, in which we see the upper half of Lee’s body, naked, exposed, trusting Murphy to see him, the man, first, and his extensive tattoo work second.
Whilst individual portraits make up a large proportion of the show, there are also pictures of pairings, both of contrasting friends with a shared counter culture and a number of compelling photographs of identical twins of varying ages. Although the primary focus is on the personalities of the people, Govanhill itself is also a subject.
