Julia Fullerton-Batten had done some work for internationally renowned fashion magazine Vogue and is recognized in the field of fine art photography through her project Teenage Stories. The same project where she placed the girls in a model village environment, dwarfing their surroundings and acknowledged as one of the best among up and coming talents proven by awards given to her by The Royal Photographic Society, The John Kobal Awards and Schweppes Awards.

This time, however, this multi-awarded youngster shocks us once again by turning her sights to healthcare. The National Portrait Gallery presents her sixteen newly commissioned large format colour photographs, shot with a Technicarden, 5x4 plate camera for A Picture of Health. It profiles some of some of the outstanding men and women who have shaped healthcare at the beginning of the 21st century.

A Picture of Health runs from June 6 to September 10 at the NPG.
