This comprehensive photobook publication presents a retrospective overview of the work of Paul M. Smith, a British photographer and pioneer in combining documentary photography with theatrical and digital manipulation.

The photographs are carefully constructed and offer a critical and visually challenging perspective on the boundaries between truth and artificial construction in contemporary photography.
