The Rise of the Dead, Bristol Zombie Walk 2012

After a long wait, finally pictures from last year are here.

Bristol Zombie Walk is one of the greatest events in Bristol. Despite its subject, it is one of the happiest gatherings in town. Zombies often start to get ready months before the event, to look as bloody and as deadly as possible. Last year saw the biggest march with nearly a thousand zombies crawling through the city center, on the last Saturday of October.

Warning: There are disturbing images in this series, please be aware of the appearance of blood and dead things.

10 to 10 Community Photo Shoot Day

If you are in Bristol come along for our next IC-Visaul lab event next Thursday in the city center.

10 to 10 will include a Community Photo-shoot where everybody can come along and take a photograph of the area and upload it to the live archive, a mobile portrait studio by professional photographer Kirsty Mackay and a service to digitise old photographs and family albums that relate to the Old Market area by Alejandro Acin.

All activities are free.

For guidance and map of the area please come to our office 58 Old Market Street, BS2 0ER

Looking forward too seeing you there.

Temple Feeds

Now that the Temple Feeds exhibition is been closed down you can view the photographs I took for the Second Chances graduate bursary here.

My work is depicting the working life of Severn Project an urban gardening project supporting socially excluded individuals working on reclaimed disused land to grow organic vegetables. The photographs were taken during February 2013, perhaps the most miserable winter of the last few decades. I photographed two sites the Keynsham and the Bristol Meads sites. With my photographs I was aiming to show the strength of people and the pride they find in their work.

Second Chances is part of Bristol Temple Quarter commissions, coordinated by Watershed, Knowle West Media Centre and MAYK, with support from Bristol City Council and Arts Council England.

I am sorry for the inconvenience. 

Temple Feeds Teaser

is a photography work depicting the working life of people at Severn Project. Severn Project is an urban gardening project supporting socially excluded individuals working on reclaimed disused land to grow vegetables.

These photographs were taken on the Temple Meads site next to Bristol’s main railway station and in Keynsham the first site that Severn Project has developed. The piece of land at Temple Meads although originally was part of open fields have suffered heavily during the industrial revolution with all the soil pollution one can imagine from oil mills, paint makers, tar and resin distillers. The soil is now have been decontaminated and with brand new soil imported now it grows lettuce for the people of Bristol.

For this work I didn’t only document the place and people but held a few introductory photography sessions to the participants and left them with disposable cameras offering a chance to show how do they feel, what do they think about they working life and their environment.

I believe we all learned from each other during the process and the final exhibition which will be held on the Bath Bridge in May is the result of this collaboration. Here you can see a small selection of the images.
