This Is East Van: Orders

This Is East Van is a community photography project now publishing it’s second in a series of books depicting life in East Vancouver, as captured by the community. I was fortunate to be a contributor to the first book with four of my shots making it to print. Interestingly, each image somehow related back to the bicycle, my chosen tool for neighbourhood exploration and community engagement. A camera and a bike = the perfect way to get to know your city.

Just over a year after the first edition and This Is East Van 2 is about to be released. I have one image in the second edition – a piece called ‘Orders’ that you will see above. Taken at Budgie’s Burritos at Kingsway/Main, just a few blocks from home. I’ve been there a few times, to say the least. A framed, signed print will be available at the show for $160.00 and I would love to find a great home for this piece.

So please, join me at the launch party and photography exhibition Saturday, July 7 at the Interurban Gallery – 1 E Hastings Street in Vancouver, BC. The exhibition will run until July 28, 2012.
