Crypt

The Bristol Photo Festival is on currently, with exhibitions across the city in a number of locations.  I won't get to see all the sites, but I hope to visit several before they close.

Today I visited the crypt of St Paul's Church, Southville.  The photographs here were by Sarker Protick from a "long term study of colonial architecture found ... in Bangladesh" and of "houses once ocupied by landlords who.. extracted rent from rural tenants".  There were half a dozen illuminated light boxes, some double sided plus a projected blend of moving images.  I'm afraid I didn't find it particularly exciting or engaging, although the method of presentation and the location were interesting.

I need to get a move on seeing some of the other exhibitions as many finish within the next two weeks.
