Paddy Summerfield :: The Oxford Pictures










Between 1968 to 1978, Paddy Summerfield photographed Oxford students in the summer terms. Though he found his subjects beside the rivers and on sunlit college lawns, Summerfield’s images primarily express the insecurities and pain of youth. His psychological approach is driven by the tension between the yearning for love, and sexual anxiety.
