You Must Never Leave This Place online

Linda Duffy

You Must Never Leave This Place is an ongoing project that has developed out of a series of conversations over the last ten years. It is the outcome of a process of listening, looking and learning. Of collecting stories and taking photographs.

The stories are of life experience and interests pursued with enthusiasm; of home, family, ancestors and local lore. The photographs, taken in and around the family home, are an attempt to capture a sense of time and place.

This exhibition includes an edited selection of images from the series.

Inside online

Mandy Williams

‘Inside’ is a series of still video images. The work, which was shot from the street at dusk over a period of two months, explores the idea of home as a sanctuary, retreat or cell. It captures people, self-contained in their routines at the end of the day, as similar repetitions play out across the city. It is inspired by Bachelard’s Poetics of Space and the lit house as a beacon, hut, and refuge and Derek Jarmans’ video ‘Journey to Avebury’ where a lyrical approach to landscape highlights the mystical and ritual elements of place.

Shit London online

Patrick Dalton

Shit meaning – unspecified item(s), ‘stuff’, ‘thing(s)’.

NOT, ‘London is shit’. I love this city.

These are photographs of the unintentional human comedy that surround us in the city. It’s the flotsam and jetsam of city life , the overlooked minutiae, the tragic, the grotesque and the basest of base. It’s the adapted posters, the dirty joke on the back of a van, the mispelt signs, the glory hole in the public loo, that weird shop down the end of your road and the knob graffiti strategically placed for maximum effect.

Out of the Loop online

Graham Barker

‘Out of the loop’ is a series of photographs of plastic waste in the Regent's Canal, Hackney.

These images have been carefully selected for their an ‘ambiguous’ appeal – looking surprisingly life-like, more like strange organisms discovered in the barren depths of our deepest oceans than plastic bags affected by the harsh conditions of the canal.

‘Out of the loop’ refers to waste material that has escaped recycling and which cannot compost or safely biodegrade into the natural environment.

Backyard Magazine online

Jonathan Goldberg, Katherine Green, George Plemper, David Solomons, Paul Tucker, Graeme Webb

The first issue of Backyard Magazine launches on the 5th November! It showcases the work of photographers who love to explore and capture their neighbourhoods. For the first issue we’ve kept it close to home and have selected work based in and around London.

It has been curated by photographer Mark Burton and features fantastic work from Jonathan Goldberg, Katherine Green, George Plemper, David Solomons, Paul Tucker and Graeme Webb.

Backyard focuses on projects close to a photographer’s heart and home. We feature photography with an international flavour, but by the photographers and artists who live and work there.

Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead): a homage to you in Hackney online

Alix Edwards

This exhibition is inspired by mexican Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) which is celebrated on November 1st and 2nd each year. In Mexico friends and family gather together to celebrate and pray for family members and friends who have died. Alix Edwards documents what we do in East London to celebrate and let go of our loved ones when they have died, particularly in unexpected or tragic circumstances and she hopes these images will inspire us all to ask what we can do as individuals to prevent such deaths from happening in the future.

Imago Corporis online

Yvanne Teo

An exploration of our states of being through a series of snapshots of the body in various unique yet characteristically recognised demeanours.

Fugitive Images/In Wait online

Andrea Luka Zimmerman, Lasse Johansson, Tristan Fennell

“In Wait” is a visual essay on the Haggerston West & Kingsland estates in Hackney, east London, in the process of demolition and re-building. The 56 photographs document the spaces left behind when people were moved out. Despite residents living in limbo for over 30 years as refurbishment plans were continuously proposed, shelved and re-proposed, the images highlight their innovative solutions to the difficulties of continuing to live while an idea and a set of buildings were being abandoned around them.

Immerse online

Mandy Williams

An online exhibition of video stills of the sea located close to where the photographer lived as a teenager. The images are a visceral response to the physical landscape, an exploration of place through emotion and memory.
