Projects
We work with participants and local communities to explore East London and beyond through photography and film.
Our projects celebrate social history and cultures, particularly untold stories of lived experience.
Many of our projects are inspired by work in Four Corners Archive.
We welcome proposals for new collaborations. If you have an idea for a project, please get in touch.
