Transcription
This is a photographic negative produced by photographer Ian Beesley. This was part of a project called 'Thackray Remembered' (Thackray 2011) which was commissioned by the Thackray Medical Museum to document the closure of a Thackray factory which manufactured hip and knee replacements. It was taken over by the American company DePuy who moved production to China.
This image shows eight people in a room all sat on a row of chairs by the back wall of the room. The furthest person away is obscured by an object stuck to the wall in the foreground, possibly a paper towel dispenser? A large vending machine contains many snacks, a pinboard rests on the wall at the back of the room and a fire blanket can be seen in its holder in the foreground.
