5 AWESOME THINGS TO DO THIS WEEKEND: 13TH NOVEMBER

Posted by Rebeca Romero on 13th Nov 2015

1.City Of Dreams

A city is only truly a city when it is vast enough for anything to be possible. When it buzzes with the thrill of infinite potential and can become the birthplace of every kind of dream.

James Birtwistle’s unique photographs with their digital treatments render London as a City of Dreams – dreams as yet unfulfilled, dreams as lived in the moment, and dreams abandoned long ago - all set against a background of waking daily reality where the stuff of dreams themselves can often be forgotten.

Where: Rich Mix
