<p><br />"Bethlem became...a ‘mirror of madness' reflecting the city's disordered<br />psyche, designed by the city fathers as an asylum for their own inpending<br />insanity." -Catherine Arnold<br />Max Reeves' photographs use London as a setting to investigate the<br />intersections and interstitials between life and myth, revealing the<br />complexity of London's psychological terrain. The verity of the city<br />morphs into a documentation of personal mythology populated with curious<br />characters, palimpsests, crows, protestors, children and apophenia. Blood,<br />authority versus the freedom of the individual and transcendence emerge as<br />themes through layered and often ambiguous images. Londinium embraces a<br />poetic vision of London superseding its geographic locality.</p>
<p>The exhibition will be accompanied by a poem by Cameron Bain ‘Londonium'</p>
