Sunset/Night photowalk & Free Exhibition Peter Mitchell Nothing Lasts Forever

For April's FREE exhibition we'll be seeing Peter Mitchell : Nothing Lasts Forever exhibition. Afterwards we will hit the streets of Soho with our cameras shooting low light street photography / portraits.

Peter Mitchell (b.1943, UK) is widely regarded as one of the most important early colour photographers of the 1970s and 80s. A powerful storyteller and social historian, Mitchell’s photography unfolds a longstanding and poetic connection with Leeds. He has chronicled the people and places, and the demolition and development of the city with warmth and familiarity for over 40 years.

Mitchell has been described as ‘a narrator of who we were, a chaser of a disappearing world’. From an alien's view of England, to demolished flats, proud shopkeepers and landlords, back-streets and eerie scarecrows, his photographs reveal his love, and at times, off-beat vision, of the people and changing face of the city.
