Black Country Type is a photography project led by artist Tom Hicks and shared from his influential Instagram account @blackcountrytype.
Through his photography, Tom applies his unique perspective onto the region, focusing on words, typography, handmade lettering, and signs.
His photography also captures types of architectural features and buildings in the ever-evolving West Midlands landscape telling a tale of the region’s identity and history through his pictorial diary.
Black Country Type is now available through @svnth_crcl – Seventh Circle – Artworks & Aesthetics of Moseley.
