Like The Seas We Rise

In October 2019 I had planned to spend 3 days with Extinction Rebellion (XR) as part of their demonstration in London, however when I got there 3 days turned into a week. I have supported XR since first attending a talk at university and have since been involved in a few different events. In London, I wanted to show my support for the cause as it is something I believe in and wished to be more involved with after being unable to attend the Spring Uprising in April earlier that year.

I spent my time in London getting involved in actions, helping out at rebellion sites, and with the aid of photography, documenting the activities and people I witnessed whilst there. I had no specific plan for my shoot before arriving because I knew that there would be so much going on and had no idea what we would be doing. I just wanted to be there, get involved, show support and capture an interesting set of images, which showed the rebellion from my point of view.”
