‘Flashing Lane’ documents the stretch of road in Appleby-in-Westmorland (Cumbria, England) where Irish Travellers race and show their horses during the annual Horse Fair. Taking place in June since 1685, this historical event is one of the biggest and most crucial gathering points for the Romani, Gypsy, and Traveller communities from throughout Europe and the United Kingdom. For the photographers Kira Bunse and Eleonora Gustapane, the series becomes a complex terrain of identity-based anthropological exploration, a way to investigate the culture, coming of age, and value systems within this traditionally nomadic society.
