An ongoing series of images shot on the flats at the edge of Epping Forrest. Review of the series by Luke Bennett –
“So … the uplifting photos of the above-named Forest Gate resident, father of three and all-round affable gent that is Rich. He has produced a fine body of work here, wedded to a theme close to my heart – the leafy environs that border the north of Forest Gate, Wanstead Flats. He has managed to net and pin some of the more nuanced themes that run through any 21st century urban environment fluttering between the old and new tensions brought on by the inevitable forces of modernity, patterns of migration and changing social ambitions.
Want of space and feelings of solitude factored into the universal desire for belonging come into sharp and then hazy focus. “
