Cherry

Here is another little gem from our backyard. The Whitechapel’s latest exhibition “Where Three Dreams Cross: 150 Years of Photography From India, Pakistan and Bangladesh” (not a snappy title I will admit!) is a lovely feast of imagery that celebrates the last 150 years of Photography in the subcontinent. From candid portraiture to reportage there is a little bit of everything and a lot of work – some 400 pieces in fact! Best of all entrance to the Whitechapel is free, yes FREE from 11am-1pm every Sunday.

But wait…. there’s more.

With the weather now starting to pick up a little (I am whispering this to avoid tempting fate) Brick Lane market is thriving and lets face it nothing stirs the appetite more than a nosey at some art, a mosey round the corner and an array of street food. I had spicy meatballs and watched a man make udon noodles from scratch… Top class Sunday!

Noodle-tastic!

The Truman tower in the sun!

In order to do a spot of research for a potential new project we popped to a very bright but blustery Hastings to see what we could see beside the sea! Fish and chips were of course high on the agenda as was soaking up the atmosphere in this historic fishing town! Nothing like a Cherry day trip to help us trawl for a big catch of creativity!

A couple of weeks back we headed along to The Book Club on Leonard St for the grand beginning of the Secret Wars Euro league. Good music, plenty of drinks and a room crammed full of people hungry for the long awaited battle led to a highly charged atmosphere. London came out on top, maybe helped by a slightly biased crowd, who knows? But the judges also swung in their favour. See the highlights below…
