The second version of our exhibition project is now open at the Brighton Photo Fringe.  Smaller pictures this time, and including selected images from family albums.  In amongst the other shows the images (some only 2 x 1 inch big) are tiny, but it was interesting to work on something so small and to concentrate on the placement of the photographs.  Link to the Fringe listing for the show with all info is at http://www.photofringe.org/?p=262, the show runs until Sunday 14th November.

The Anachronistic Album installation shots

The Anachronistic Album show at photo-space in Limehouse ended last Saturday with a sucessful and very fun print auction in aid of ovarian cancer research. Here are some installation shots of this show  which was for us an all round great project.

Notebook 2 at the studio

Last weekend we had another open studio, Notebook 2. I printed up and displayed some of the most recent pictures from my shops project.  Melanie made a number or large prints of portraits she'd taken over the years of her partner Shaun, while Heather printed up a large tripdych of beach/sea pictures and a small one of visually connected singles. Again we had a great turn out at the opening and really interesting responses.
