Control Order House

Edmund Clark (1963)

Synopsis

Edmund Clark's "Control Order House" delves into the UK’s use of house detention for those suspected of terrorist activities without trial. The book documents this experience through photographs, architectural representations, and CE's handwritten diary. It incorporates redacted documents from CE's legal case, exhibiting the control and censorship Clark faced from the Home Office, as his work within the house was scrutinized. The book challenges traditional photography by presenting unedited images in sequence, highlighting the oppressive and monotonous experience of such detention. It also examines the tension between state power and individual rights.
