Bristol Bike Portraits – Exhibition
I’m very pleased to be invited to be part of the upcoming Bristol Bike Festival - ‘a festival that celebrates the wonderfulness of bikes made by the people for the people of Bristol’.
I’ll be showing some of the Bristol Bike Portraits I took during my fieldwork this year. This will be the second exhibition of Bike Portraits – the first was in Hackney last month in five bike shops and cafes throughout the borough. The event was launched the event with a Private View Bike Ride. More here .
This time, a selection of printed portraits will be displayed in the main Festival HQ – The Showroom (old co-op shop) College Green. I am hoping to project more of the images via a bike powered projector (as per the rough sketch below). I am also very excited to announce that Jet McDonald who recently returned from a year long cycle tour from Bristol to India and who features with Jen in one of my portraits .
The exhibition opens on Wednesday 14th September and runs until 25th September.
The launch is 6pm Friday 16th September.
