The Sunday market is a kind of street theatre: spontaneous and highly visual. Capturing a contrast between the energy of the people buying and selling and the run-down, pre-gentrification East End, these images offer a glimpse into the area before its dramatic social change. Compelling, vibrant, humorous and heartfelt, Paul Trevor's photography brings to life a diverse, thrumming city that feels both faraway and familiar. Motivated by a keen social impulse, self-taught photographer Paul Trevor spent many years during the '70s and '80s capturing life in London's markets. His photographs have been exhibited internationally since 1970.
