London based David Spero has been documenting alternative communities since 2004 in his ‘Settlements’ series. Focusing on four groups located in Somerset, Devon and Wales, the series follows individuals who have chosen to live ‘off-grid’, building low-impact, land-based lifestyles rooted in ecological sustainability. Their goal is to create habitats, economies and ways of living that minimise environmental impact.
Spero’s work has been collected internationally by major public institutions such as the VICTORIA and ALBERT MUSEUM, NATIONAL MEDIA MUSEUM, CITIBANK COLLECTION, London, The BRITISH COUNCIL and MACRO, Rome.
