Documentary Family Photography and Finding A Way Home Showcase Exhibitions 2021 | Documentary Family Photographers Worldwide, Artizan Gallery and Florida Museum of Photographic Arts
2021 might have got off to a rocky start, but if this last year had taught me something is to take nothing for granted and I am very proud to share that some of my photographs have been selected to be part of two international and one UK exhibitions this coming April!
The six photographs chosen represent my documentary family photography work and from a personal project that I began last year.
English Riviera Photography Showcase, Artizan Gallery, Torquay
As part of the ‘Finding A Way Home’ English Riviera Photography Showcase, co-curated and produced by The South West Collective and Artizan Gallery, three of my photographs have been selected to be part of this exhibition. The showcase will feature a multi-stranded photographic and digital artwork by artists from across the UK.
A collection of framed prints and photographs hang on the wall of my parents' home, the house where I grew up in. The photograph is part of a long-term personal project on my dad and our relationship. This photograph has been selected for the 'Finding A Way Home' English Riviera Showcase at the Artizan Gallery, 19 April - 16 May 2021.

All of the exhibitions will take place between April to May and there is a chance to view some of them virtually (where it’s difficult to see in person now). My thanks goes to each of the organisers, exhibitors and curators for selecting my images and recognising there is art in documenting families and photos I create.
