LVP Greenwich/Lewisham group: Our Villages

Six members documenting their ideas of the ‘village’ in Greenwich and Lewisham have now curated their own show of the work they did for the London Villages Project. The limited number of individual prints on display is a consequence of the huge number of people involved in the Project and the library of images they have created. This separate exhibition provides a platform to show more of the work done locally over the twelve-month period. However, and more importantly, it is to share the work with the local communities.
The six exhibiting participants are: Anita Strasser, Anne-Marie Glasheen, Barry White, Keith Ellis, Peter Luck, Summeet Kaur Seyan
