And now for a little taste about London's secret past
Artist photographer Clare Newton explores some of London's hidden treasures
After the Olympics came to London, much of its past was lost...here's some insights and intriguing local stories blended with contemporary photography
Does History have a place in contemporary Art photography?
Artist-photographer clareNewton draws together thecomplex strings of creativity,by combining delicateimages with the delightfullyquirky stories from the cityof London
The City of London has been a major settlement for two millennia. It became the epicentre of trading with the world as long ago as the Roman invasion – being established as an outpost along the River Thames in AD47. Even today, time hasn’t in any way diminished its global influence. Now, artist and photographer, Clare Newton, explores the City’s secretive treasures, but rather than take you on a journey portrayed with traditional photography, she creates the artistry of images through long exposures combined with a technique called ‘shutter-dragging’, accentuating the past where all that’s left is a ghostly residue.
What inspired a new novel about a romantic affair between a young student and his first love...
Writing a trilogy about a young man’s first romance
The novel-trilogy of which into Full Sunlight is the first part was much time in the making. This of course is often the case with a long text, which, by the time its final form materialises, has had many elements added to it, sometimes at large intervals. but living with a fictional project for a prolonged period does mean that you grow clearer about your subject-matter: you increasingly benefit from the power of hindsight and the advantages of greater mental maturity. The trilogy was one of the key endeavours by which, across the years, i sought to gauge my capacity as a writer. repeatedly, i asked myself: can i complete it? And even if i can, will it be of real literary merit, at least in my own eyes? And even if it is, will it impress the general reading public? i applied these questions to my other writing efforts as well: these were mainly in the field of philosophy.
