Roll Up, Roll Up!

Good morning, I'm having an print sale. These photographs are from my first solo exhibition and I'm selling these limited edition 16x20 inch prints for £150 each.

If you'd like one but prefer a different size, that's fine just email me on megan@megantaylor.co.uk and I'll give you a quote.

Thank you very much! x

Excalbur

These photographs accompany an article by Ros Anderson in todays Guardian Weekend. It was such a interesting job.  The Excalibur Estate in Catford is due to be demolished and the first phase of house clearances has already begun. Sadly for lots of residents a vote went very marginally in favour of moving.











Below is Eddie O'Mahoney, the estates oldest resident who moved in in 1946. Everyone we spoke to was great but it was especially hard to tear ourselves away from Eddie's immaculate lounge. A WW11 veteran who described being in a Japanese Prisoner of war camp as, "not as bad as it sounds". Eddie doesn't want to go anywhere and who can blame him at 92 and after more than 60 years.

Arise You Gallant Sweeneys

Some of these photographs accompanied an article in the Guardian on Saturday. The article, Long Way Back was about the film, 'Arise You Gallant Sweeneys' a collaborative project between the men photographed and the artist, Ian Nesbitt. The film follows the group as they go home to Ireland for the first time since they were young men.
