Old Father Thames – Tower Bridge, 2018, by Julia Fullerton-Batten‘It’s incredible to imagine people swimming and bathing in the River Thames. From the 1930s to 70s, the poor people of the East End would hire a deck chair and come and hang out. I love the idea of people spending time by the river, something we don’t see any more. That part of the river is only open once a year for mud larkers now’

I Only Want You to Love Me #1, 2011, by Miles Aldridge‘This interest in colour goes back to one of my early confrontations with fashion photography. There was this idea that for a photograph to be interesting it had to be black and white, but I always thought there was so much possibility with colour. I’d used this narrative of “domestic madness” before but wondered how much colour I can add before an image falls apart’
