Exhibition Preview Evening


Wednesdays preview evening went really well, it was nice to see alot of people there and a really diverse range of artwork in the gallery, from sculptures to paintings. There were some really cool animal heads made with perspex that really stood out.
It was nice see the prints in that kind of environment and the people that i spoke to seemed to enjoy them. I was especially pleased with the Detroit prints because i hadnt really seen them together properly as they were when they were mounted on the wall, the paint and aluminium did actually give the print a rusty disguarded feel that i was after.

The Urban Matters Exhibition


So going from one end of london to the other with a suitcase full of framed pictures and badly wrapped metal frames held together with bubble wrap and duct tape was quite a journey. Still I think driving to East London would have been just as stressfull, But the prints are now in the hands of the gallery to put up. I cant wait to see them tomorrow.

I was debating whether to leave out the Chernobyl ones but was really excited to find that they used my photo for the printed flyers and it also made my decision for me.

The Fall of Motorcity


The first set of images from the Detroit mini trip are now on the website, still adding text to go with them but take a look through. It was a fantastic trip and interesting to see the contrast between downtown Detroit and the surrounding neighborhoods. Some great architecture lives on here and even in the derelict state, some of the buildings still ooze presence.
