A selection of photographs taken on the island of Vatersay in the Outer Hebrides. There are two sections to the book the first are photographs taken between 1984 and 1985. The second between 2010 and 2014.

Paul Glazier grew up in London and went to Goldsmiths College of London University for his degree in Fine Art, graduating in 1987. It was there that he first printed his photographs taken on Vatersay, the most southerly inhabited island of the Outer Hebrides in Scotland.
By that time he already had a strong relationship with the island since he had been going there regularly from 1978. This relationship has continued till the current day.
Back in the eighties there were not so many cameras on the island and they would only be taken out for special occasions. This means that for some people Glazier's photographs are the only images they have of family or friends from that period. So over the years they have accrued a certain historical and, for the islanders, nostalgic value.
Glazier's artistic practice is very diverse, ranging from photography and painting to video and music. However, photography has remained a constant thread though the years, as has been his love of the island of Vatersay. He continues to photograph the people of the island, capturing the changing faces as time leaves its mark. Some of the children in the original photographs now have their own children and even grand children, and parents have become great grandparents. Hoping to be able to chronicle the island for many years to come, Glazier is slowly building a unique document of this small community.
