Crew, Pilot, and Russian Girlfriend (Novorossiysk) 1-10, 1999-2000/2010
Crew, pilot, and Russian Girlfriend (Novorossiysk) portraits ten members of the activist crew on the Global Mariner, a ship destined for destruction that was turned into a floating global exhibition on seafarers’ working conditions and rights, sponsored by the London-based International Transport Workers Federation. The primary target of critique was the system of ‘flag of convenience’ shipping, designed to avoid improving working conditions on the oceans.
