A series of photographic images by Angela Buffoni , a south London artist, who over three decades, has witnessed the dramatic changes of London in general and of south east London in particular.
About
The Greenwich Gallery is pleased to present new photographic works by Angela Buffoni documenting how London in general has changed and the south east of the city in particular.
The exhibition consists of colour photographs shot over the years on both analogue and digital cameras. All prints are limited editions of 5 + 1 AP.
Against the backdrop of skyscrapers and building sites Angela Buffoni’s visual comments capture a city in transition, slowly becoming more exclusive as a result of housing policies and the manic property market.
The fast paced gentrification of vast areas of London is already producing spiralling rent hikes, and the ensuing erosion of local communities. High rents are forcing out independent shops, cafés and bars. Local residents and key workers unable to pay increased rents are finding it increasingly necessary to relocate.
While the exhibition may not have the power to either transform or halt this process, it hopes to prompt visitors to question and debate the direction London is taking.
