I spoke to this girl, who had created a room, complete with a sofa and some of her friends, all dressed up. Really strange but somehow compelling.

Degree Shows

Went up to Brick Lane last week to view some of the degree shows. There was plenty to see - not all of it good - but it always makes for a great night. Not sure what’s on this week - check out Free Range for the programme. Some great characters there, plenty of dressing up and some weird displays. My favourite was someone who cut out people images from childrens books from the 30s and 40s and created sinister landscapes with the characters as the victims.

No Such Thing as Society

You may be aware of this travelling show that’s just kicked off in Aberystwyth but just in case, I thought I’d draw your attention to it.

                   

Some lovely photographers are included - Chris Killip, Ian Berry, Tony Ray-Jones, Homer Sykes and Marketa Luskacova to name a few; the kind of people that inspired me to pick up a camera when a mere slip of a thing - but sometimes to put it down again in despair!

Unfortunately, it doesn’t appear to be coming anywhere near London but I think it’ll be well worth a trip out.

The book of the same name is pretty good, too.

HERITAGE AT THE DOMINION
Well done, Brig! Like Jonny, I enjoyed the show; such a variety of themes meant there really was something for everyone. My personal favourites among them appealed to my love of the quirky side of life; the colourful houseboats with their very individual décor, abstract shapes and colours on the sides of buildings – and the wonderful hand above - which reminded me very much of the hand one sees on the side of a packet of henna! You’ve captured some wonderful light in these pictures and it’s clear you have an affinity with your subject. I know you’ve spent many hours trekking these waterways and it’s made me realise what a novice explorer I am even though I’ve lived here for several years now. I await my guided tour!
