Ben Chisnall

The culmination of a five year-long project observing the lives of Londoners - the ordinary and not-so-ordinary doing that most mundane and democratic of London activities: taking the tube.

A portrait of a city in transit, this Exhibition celebrates the diversity of the capital and also attempts to capture something of the experience of negotiating a city of eight million strangers living in close proximity.  Works are for sale.  There will be an “Open View“ of the exhibition on Wednesday 2 November from 6.30 - 8.30pm at Barbican Library.  All are welcome, just turn up!
