blondin is an outdoor exhibition from the photography group i am part of. it is blondin park and explores the park and things that caught our attention there or related to it. i have a couple of photos in it. it was installed today. you are probably aware that charles blondin was the french guy who walked across niagara falls on a tightrope - he lived locally at some point. so as a nod to that i photographed a local tightrope walker who uses the park. but in the photo i took i noticed the tree behind him looked very like the one used by ealing council across it's signage for parks. so i asked my friend jon birch to blend the two images together and that is now the image promoting it and on the intro board which i am really pleased with.
the exhibition will be up for brentford festival, BEAT weekends and then a few months. it's slightly strange that i am now exhibiting in ealing in two outdoor exhibitions as unlocked has never been taken down!
there will be an opening evening on sept 6 in the park by the boards at 7pm. do come along that evening to say hi if you are local and have a drink and a look at the photos. being a park and outdoors you can see it wen you like of course.
this gives you an idea of the boards in the park (this photo was taken by group member angelika berndt)
