| Changing Spaces brings together five photographers whose work addresses the changing nature of urban space. The exhibition reflects on a range of visual styles, narratives and research methodologies drawing on documentary, fine art and landscape practices, in order to investigate how urban space is constructed through the perceptions, intuitions and apperceptions of the visual artist located within, and responding to the city. |

Simon Rowe’s photographs, part of a larger project about the Pepys estate, present a portrait of a South East London housing estate as it moves into a new era. The project reflects a sense of the multiplicity of human and social relationships against a backdrop of social change and regeneration.
Gregor Stephan’s practice addresses urban and rural spaces in transformation based on economic revaluation, more specifically addressing questions of aesthetics in relation to economic change in urban and rural structures. His work in this exhibition focuses on Berlin – Schönefeld airport, which
will become one of Germany and Europe’s largest airports within the next ten years. |

| Mandy Lee Jandrell’s photographs, taken within the parameters of constructed leisure environments such as theme parks and zoos, highlight the discord between the aspirational or idyllic nature of their design and the points at which those aspirations are broken down by reality.
Isidro Ramirez’s interest stems from differences in sensory perception. Sighted people are often unaffected by some visual aspects of their world. Using photography, Ramirez tries to expose this paradox by illuminating the spaces in which blind people live and work. |

| Laura Braun photographs social and public spaces devoid of the presence of people. This project about Downtown Los Angeles has it's beginning in the fiction written about the city but it seems that time has forgotten it. There is a sense of absence and stillness, as if Downtown was suspended somewhere above the rest of the city. |
