Bob Dylan once said that he was born very far from where he was supposed to be. It’s a feeling shared with anyone who grew up in the suburbs. Forever waiting to catch a train to somewhere, anywhere, more exciting than this. The suburbs formed the basis of a conversation I had in May with photographer @elaine_constantine, as we sat outside a little Italian cafe in North London. Elaine’s work has always found magic in the mundane and her story, the very first we commissioned for the new issue of @thefacemagazine, is no different – an ​“epic suburbia adventure”, as @clairemahealy puts it in her brilliant accompanying essay. An ode to calling out around the world, and going racing in the street. Thank you, @elaine_constantine. What a joy to have you back in THE FACE.
