the Thames – a London portrait

The River Thames has shaped London – literally and metaphorically – for centuries, its use and environment evolving to meet the changing needs of the city.

This work documents the south bank of the river from London Bridge to the Thames Barrier, walking and taking photographs at 500 metre intervals. Pairing images of the landscape with images of the river creates a dialogue between contemporary and historical activity. A portrait emerges of a river and its environment: a product of the past, seen from the perspective of the present.
