THROUGH THE LENS OF MUSIC is an exhibition and social event which celebrates the work and livelihood of Merseyside music photographers. Its aim is to create a platform to come together to remember captured moments and invite us to appreciate and support their artwork. Music photography is a vital part of the music industry, but it is also a visual art form - creative, inspiring, emotional and skilful. The event aims to encourage proactive dialogue regarding the local creative network, music photographers’ status in the local music scene and work within the current pandemic-risen situation.
Exhibiting artists: Amelia Jones (inkblots), Gary Lambert (Glam Gig Pics), Jacob Kazara, Jenn Cliff Wilcock (Lens of a Wool), Lucy McLachlan, Marieke Macklon, Sarah Sidwell, Warren Millar
