Pillar to Post focuses on the vibrant and resilient Traveller and Gypsy communities across the UK and Ireland.
Wright was first drawn to photograph this community after hearing about a relative who was from Irish Traveller heritage but denounced her heritage and past when she married. Wright wanted to learn more and was shocked by the open prejudice towards this community, wanting to tell the real story of the people he met and counter the misrepresentative media portrayal.
Immersing himself for two years, Wright travelled to horse fairs across the UK and Ireland, conducting interviews, carrying out research, meeting inspiring people and documenting his experiences through photography and film.

Sam found his passion for photography photographing D.I.Y punk gigs in pub basements around his home town of Sheffield. Sam's approach to photography is about story telling, creating connections with both people and places and finding beauty in the overlooked and everyday. He documents his experiences in a considered, stylised, colourful and tangible way, for personal, editorial and commissioned projects. Sam's work always centres around beautiful light, whether natural or recreated. Sams work has been recognised by respected awards and galleries including: The NPG, D&AD Awards, Lurzer's Archive, Creative Review, Its Nice That, Palm Studios and The AOP Awards.
