For the next 10 posts I will be showcasing a new print series entitled “My Neon Noir Nights” (I know I normally take out the vowels but it wouldn’t have made any sense ;) These are all shots that I have taken whilst engaged in and documenting music based fun fuelled nocturnal activities.
Me and my camera have a symbiotic relationship so it somehow manages to capture the essence of my own experience. The camera never lies apparently and these pictures are indeed an honest depiction of how it looked and felt at the time…which was mostly mashed and blurry with intense colours, a barrage of lights, rushes of joy inside an amorphous dancing blob monster…well that’s how I don’t remember it anyways ;) How is my camera able to do this? I have no idea. I’m just glad it can…
So here comes the math…10 galleries, 10 prints in each gallery, 10 copies of each print = 100 shots at £100 a pop for each limited edition A3 print (420x297mm approx) which is not only 50% off the normal price (offer ends 15th dec) but also £30 of each sale will go to https://thefelixproject.org/ who are sourcing food that would go to waste and delivering it to those who desperately need it in London – each 30 quid will generate a whopping 183 meals. So you get a print, 183 people get fed and I make a sale, that’s a win,win,win in my books.
We are in the midst of an economically devastating pandemic for the financially fragile so if we can just help prop them up and sustain them during this difficult period they will hopefully be able to survive until a semblance of normality returns. But you could also cut out the middle man (that’s me) and just make a donation to them if you don’t want a print. Not that I’m trying to talk you out of a sale, just throwing it out there..
Crowd Surf
This first neon noir gallery is a selection of crowd shots all taken mid frenzy at gigs & festivals and show how a ton of individuals united by music can become one mass of positive energy with a thousand hands all reaching for the sky in jubilation…or ‘larging it up’ as it is also known.
