About
The Migration Museum is exhibiting a selection of images from Magnum photographer Chris Steele-Perkins’ The New Londoners project, a series of family portraits celebrating London’s unique cultural richness.
Chris Steele-Perkins has photographed and interviewed 164 families from 187 countries that are now living in London. The photographs, taken in the subjects’ own homes, provide intimate snapshots of people from all over the world who have made London their home, transforming it into one of the most ethnically diverse cities in the world.
Yet the project – and exhibition – also takes place at a time of intense debate about migration, identity and what Brexit might mean for London and Britain’s future relationship with the world.
