Instagrammer in Residence
Christy Ku (March 2019)

I’m a Hong Kong born, London based creative who generates poetry, performances, photographs and other things that don’t all begin with ‘P’.
I’m also a short story writer, YouTube journalist, occasional video creator and a general all round digital content producer.'

'I’ve been taking photos since I received my first ever phone that had a camera (it was a chunky Samsung Slider) and currently my main focus is portraits (I’ve since upgraded from the Samsung phone). '



What inspires you about the Barbican?

'Every time I go into the building, it still surprises and amazes me.
Having since spent a lot of time in all corners of the Barbican, from the Frobisher rooms tucked away in the upper floors, napping in the Green Room during rehearsal breaks, performing on its stages to exploring the rooftop gardens, the Barbican feels like a home that keeps revealing new rooms or entire sections I never knew existed.'

About
The Barbican's Instagrammer in Residence project invites emerging Instagrammers from around London to experience life at the Barbican and share their photography.
