Figure.8: A New Group Exhibition Celebrating Community in Photography

2024-09-17 – Feature

Exhibition, Photography, Community, Film

Figure.8, a group exhibition at London's Campbell Works, was born from a shared belief in the value of a supportive photography community.

This showcase brings together eight photographers—Lewis Khan, Myles Morgan Bailey, Sadie Catt, Abena Appiah, Khatun, Max Ferguson, Sapphire Stewart, and Billy Barraclough—each presenting their latest personal projects exploring forgotten stories, hidden meanings, personal histories, and contemporary British society.

Through mentoring and creative exchanges, these artists have created a space that fosters both growth and innovation. The pieces featured in this inaugural Figure.8 exhibition are the result of their collaborative efforts.

Figure.8 is supported by the University of the West of England, Labyrinth Photographic, Spectrum Photographic, Sarah England, Dalton Drinks, and Cano Water.
