A collection of works by British photographer Chris Shaw "Life as A Night Porter". Born in 1961, Chris studied photography with Martin Parr and Paul Graham at West Surrey College of Art & Design. Based on black-and-white documentary works, he is a famous photographer such as the documentary "Retrospective Sandy Hill", which is set in "Sandy Hill", a working-class town located on the border of Surrey and Hampshire in England. A creative style that interweaves text in a diary style reminiscent of Jim Goldberg is also characteristic. This book is composed of images taken when he was working as a night shift porter at a hotel, and made Chris' name known to the world. This is an interesting book that depicts the drama of life woven by many people who gather at the hotel from various perspectives.
