Ridley Road Stories
Don Travis Future Hackney
Photographers Donna Travis and Wayne R Crichlow recently set up an outdoor exhibition in Hackney, titled Ridley Road Stories after the street name. It’s comprised of 10 large portraits celebrating Dalston’s Afro-Caribbean community – which were taken just a few hundred metres away. “You’re showing the community to itself,” Travis told the BBC. “I find that idea really powerful.” The exhibition is a project from Future Hackney, a group which documents social change in East London. This year, there are plans to create a free publication exhibition with Create London, focusing on BAME groups which have been disproportionately affected by Covid-19. futurehackney.com
