We have a very exiting project at the moment:
Ensemble Productioh has asked us to curate the show for Greater London Authority at City Hall. Its been very challenging but extremely successful project. 9 photographers participated in the group show and it was on show at the City Hall until 29th of February and have been moved to Pushkin House at the moment!
This exhibition features Russians who have made London their home, as captured by a number of Russian photographers.
The series of stills depicts those Russians in the capital who have contributed professionally to the artistic, cultural and economic development of London’s multicultural scene.
Exploring the ideas of immigration, aspiration and integration, the images trace the history of the Russian diaspora in London.
Starting in west London, the focus of the exhibition sweeps east, pausing at iconic locations and stepping into homes along the way, culminating at the heart of London 2012– the Olympic Park.
See the details visiting information for Pushking House below.

Picture taken on Green Lens’s Shorts Film screening at East End Film Festival, on the picture showing Helen Lovelee’s film ‘Under water forest meditation; Colour’. The subject is the underwater forests of the Tasman Sea, Australia. Because of the impact of commercial activities like fishing and farming only an approximate 5% of these forests remain for leisure, study and survival.
