Alicia Bruce is a Scottish photographer that explores the connection between people, place and culture, in an investigative manner that beautifully addresses issues, by empowering the voice of her subjects. In her project ‘Menie TRUMPED’ she portrays the residents of Menie, who protested against the development of Trump’s golf course. Rather than sensationalise the subjects, as the media has done, she recreates compositions from celebrated paintings to address the importance of heritage. By doing this, she has created a body of work that respectfully represents a community in a neutral and un-biased manner.
