• Wabi-Sabi

    wabi-sabi – the perfect imperfect

    A collaboration between PhotoHastings & London Independent Photographers. Curated by Sonia Davda (LIP) & Derek Cottrell (PH)

    Friday through Sunday, 3-5 and 10-12 October, 11-5pm
    Opening Event – Friday 3 October 6-9pm, with music – all welcome
    Electro Studios Project Space – Main Gallery

    Wabi Sabi embraces the of finding beauty in imperfection, impermanence and incompleteness within nature and objects. Through photography, we reveal how time, weather, decay and simplicity create a quiet elegance in life’s fleeting nature.

    These works invite the viewer to observe beauty in the natural cycle of decay and aging, material and human, in things which are incomplete and imperfect, to slowdown and find appreciation for the constantly changing impermanence of nature.

  • Shared Voices

    A showcase by Brighton Queer Photographers Collective

    Friday through Sunday, 3-5 October, 11-5pm
    Opening Event – Friday 3 October 6-9pm, with music – all welcome
    Electro Studios Project Space – Landing Gallery

    Brighton Queer Photographers Collective is a group of LGBTQIA+ photographers who have come together to centre queer joy and creativity. Creating space for queer representation and collaborative queer art is at the forefront of our collective, as we have found photography can otherwise be a solitary activity.

    The collective brings together different local creatives, each showcasing their own personal projects whilst interweaving common threads such as identity, connection, and self-exploration.
