Mabley Green exhibition

The photography exhibition of the Mabley Green project is now on show at Yonder, in Walthamstow.

2023 has started off with an exciting bang.

Yonder, a climbing gym and studio space in Walthamstow is playing host to my latest photography exhibition.

Launching on the 9th of January this year, the show comprises of 16 prints from the Mabley Green: Class of ‘21 project. The show will be hanging until the 6th or March, so make sure you get over there and take a look.

Selecting the prints for an exhibition is always hard, even more so than doing the book selection. I’m very happy with the final choices though, and it’s great to see my work hanging in the flesh again. Thanks to everyone that has supported the project along the way, and all the kind words that have been offered up.

If you don’t know about the project yet, head over here to read more about it.

It was photographed during the November lockdown in London, and documents a community of rock climbers that grew around a large boulder on Mabley Green. It tells the story through text and images, exploring what the boulder meant to the people using it, and the symbiotic relationship that developed.

It was a dream to photograph, being able to combine my documentary style of work, and love for climbing.

The exhibition is open to all, and free to view.

Yonder has a lovely cafe on site where you can grab a coffee, cake, or even a pint on tap. They are located at
