This exhibition of George Wilson's seaside arcade photographs provides an important insight into the communities that formed in these liminal coastal spaces. Wilson's 'insider' photography vitally brings to life a community that have until now, remained often invisible. These evocative arcade photographs, held since 2017 at CCCU's South East Archive of Seaside (SEAS) Photography, remain one of the few documentary series of British amusement arcades.
