Something for the weekend: Havana comes to Bethnal Green 2-4 March
From 2 - 4 March, people will be invited to a Havana inspired cultural takeover at East London’s Rich Mix. There will be loads going on including a photography exhibition by the wonderful Pia! I don't know many people, let alone females, that take great 35mm photographs, but Pia is one of them so I'm super excited to see her photos. Find a taster of her work below, some blurb and a few links to the 3 day extravaganza!
"The three day long exhibition has been carefully curated by Boiler Room’s very own Thristian bPm and will feature a host of extra special guests including Charlie Dark, who will be on hand to host the weekend proceedings. The takeover will include photography, films, Afro Latin inspired music and a Cuba inspired street market. The inspiration for Havana Santiago, started early last year when photographer Pia Ebrill and Thristian boarded a flight to Cuba to capture the colour, sights, sounds, people and the music of Havana. Over 14 days, Pia and Thristian travelled 1,720 miles from Havana right across to Santiago de Cuba gathering photos, sounds and inspiration to bring back to London......"
