Day 23: George Robson
As part of Creativity Works: Visual Storytelling, we're highlighting each of the photographers who took part
What Is Your London?
For many, the idea of London conjures up postcard pictures: the London Eye, Buckingham Palace. However, these depictions of the capital that we’re used to seeing in the media, advertising and the press are outdated. That isn’t the reality for young people living here today. London is nothing without the people that live in it, and each individual has their own story to tell so the participants of Creativity Works: Visual Storytelling were briefed with showing the world what their version of London is, to let the world see their perspective.
This is George's London...
Flying the Nest
Flying the Nest documents George Robson’s close friends' suburban lifestyle since leaving central London. His natural, honest portraits of his peers are taken outside or close to their new homes.
Having grown up with his peers in a very urban area of London, George wanted to explore the dynamic of trying to find comfort and a feeling of home in new and alien environments.
