PHIL MAXWELL

I was delighted to meet this centenerian woman in Sylhet, Bangladesh in 1992. She was the great grandmother of a friend. I photographed her in her garden and was impressed with her energy as she was still looking after the plants she’d nurtured over many years. This image is a photomontage of a painting of her and the original portrait photograph. I wanted to emphasize her stunning eyes.

Digital Exclusion

December 6, 2023

This illustration was used to illustrate an article on ‘digital exclusion’ for the manifesto of the Merseyside Pensioners Association (MPA). Older people for a variety of reasons are often excluded from the digital world many of us take for granted. The MPA campaigns to ensure that older people are not excluded from mainstream society.
