Since February 2015, Ffoton Wales has been shining a spotlight on the diverse and dynamic photography scene across Wales, bringing you intimate conversations with talented photographers.

Each episode delves deep into the stories behind career paths, practice and images, as photographers share their creative processes, professional lessons learned, and the unique perspectives that shape their work. Spanning regions from north, mid and south Wales, from documentary photography to fine art, Ffoton discussions offer an independent, grass-roots exploration of the full spectrum of contemporary photographic expression in Wales.

Whether you're a photography enthusiast, student, a working professional, or simply curious about the visual arts, Ffoton Wales offers an authentic and informative insight on talented photographers based, or making work, in Wales. Join Ffoton founders Brian Carroll and Emyr Young, along with other guest hosts, as they track established and emerging photography talent, one conversation at a time – with new episodes released as they are completed.

In addition to carrying our audio conversations, the Ffoton YouTube Channel also hosts short films and video segments with photographers. www.youtube.com/ffotonwales

WALTER WAYGOOD IN CONVERSATION WITH BRIAN CARROLL
MERTHYR TYDFIL, MAY 2024
(Published on Ffoton YouTube channel 13 August 2024)

Walter Waygood studied Fine Art at Newport College of Art in the 1970s where he was introduced to the large format camera and, from that point onwards, has incorporated photography into his art, design and photomontage disciplines.

Waygood's work was inspired by the German portrait documentary photographer August Sander and the American photographers of the 1930’s Farm Security Administration. Here in Wales, he continues to be inspired by the landscape and people of his home environment Blaenafon, South Wales. His photography provides a commentary of working class life in the area during the 1970‘s. His interest in photography as a form of social commentary led him to make more political statements through his pictures during the miners strike of the 1980’s and he was one of the photographers selected as part of Ffotogallery's 'Valleys Project' in the 1980s.

His work is held in the collections of The National Library of Wales, National Museum Wales and The British Library.
