'The Way We Live' Opening Day
A collection of shots I grabbed. 

It has been an absolutely fantastic trip visiting #TheWayWeLive at @theboxplymouth. 

What an experience, I am on the train home to a now stormy Sheffield reflecting on an exhibition which holds the idea of 'Home' at its core. The shows curator @beth_beth_hughes continually inspires me and really knows how to research a show and respond with such authenticity and intimacy. The artists included in this exhibition all have extremely important voices and reflect their ideas back into our society with such a boldness to be intimate with their creative languages. It has been a privilege just sitting a chatting to you, getting your version of life and hearing how you translate it. 

'This exhibition responds to Jill Craigies film ‘The Way We Live’ (1946) showing what post-war family life looked like in Plymouth and had taken a radical approach by engaging local residents rather than professional actors to ask questions about how people wanted to live.'

Here's a collection of artists that have adopted a similar approach to Craigies's methods, they all pay attention to their surrounding and are in conversation with what home is to them. And I cannot recommend this show enough to anyone in the region or anyone who's willing to make the journey its definitely worth it. 

I excited to get back 'Home' to the studio to make more. 

To all involved, congratulations, it was a pleasure
