The new Gypsies: “white settlement” in the project of Ian Mackell. Photo

In the series “the New Gypsies” photographer Ian mackell (Iain Mckell) captured a group of modern nomads.

It all started in 1986 when several post-punks, protesting against the policies of Margaret Thatcher, left London to live in the countryside and eventually turned into a sort of sprawling “white camp”.

The community still lives in the carts moved around the country, profess the ideas of anarchism, of self-sufficiency and freedom from “evil of the modern world.”
