Stuart Hands

Stuart Hands was brought up in Cornwall near the border with Devon, and thus early in life he became aware of boundaries. This led to an interest in boundary markers and then in fingerposts. He photographed many of these fast disappearing artefacts while travelling throughout Britain in the course of his work. He collected traffic signs for eventual display, and these can now be seen at Dingles Steam Village at Lifton in Devon
