Campaigning For Housing

October 27, 2016

According to the Housing Charity Shelter 117 families in Britain become homeless every day. The housing crisis that now afflicts every part of the UK and ‘social housing’ hardly exists anymore. Inequality is increasing and the vast majority of young people have no chance of buying there own home. People are campaigning nationwide against this particular aspect of ‘austerity’. Here are some photographs taken in 2015 in East London of campaigners protesting for decent affordable social housing.

Harvey Gould’s Soho

October 26, 2016

In 2014 I made a film with Hazuan Hashim of an extraordinary Londoner called Harvey Gould. Here are some stills I took during the production of the film. Harvey was a marvellous subject; wonderfully animated, he lit up the screen.
