An exhibition exploring the relationship between reality and perception during the Covid-19 pandemic, using analogue versus digital photography.
About
'Waiting for Time' explores the relationship between reality and perception during the Covid-19 pandemic, using analogue versus digital, and black & white versus colour photography. With personal stories of the lockdowns in London and Berlin.
Over the course of one year, photographer Yamam Nabeel interviewed and photographed more than 50 Londoners and Berliners, using a modern mirrorless full-frame digital camera and a 1960’s medium-format Hasselblad 500cm analogue camera. As people were struggling to adjust to the reality presented to them, the photographer recorded their individual experiences during the pandemic and documented their reality. He sought to find out how perception can manipulate our senses during the pandemic.
Yamam’s aim was to capture the lockdown in a unique but delicate way, showing not only the emptiness of the lockdown but also tell the personal story of each participant.
Join us over drinks for the private view on Thursday 23rd September @ Fitzrovia Gallery from 6 - 9pm (RSVP amber@artforward.com)
