Chronicle of a Life Untold
?Sir, when a man is tired of London, he is tired of life; for there is in London all that life can afford.” When Samuel Johnson penned these famous words in 1777, life in London was very different: King George III sat on the throne, Uranus was about to be discovered and parliament debated how best to deal with the American upstarts on the other side of the pond.

Columbia Road Flower Market

A moment with Maribou State
The talented duo is back for a new album “Portraits”, to be released 1st June 2015 (Counter Records and Ninja Tune). This album promises to be full of surprises and an irresistible blend of deep, resonant guitar licks and dishevelled synths riding upon looping breakbeats. We talked with Chris and Liam while they were in the US just to see what they have in their guts.
Graham C Harwood
A Hackney Wick resident of ten years, painter Graham C Harwood moved into his current studio in East London before this slightly eerie part of town was ever considered trendy. An explosion of colour and light, walking into Harwood’s space is a delight for all senses with the artist’s paintings making a particularly strong impression. Fascinated by the splendor of nature, science, transformation and memory- Harwood’s love for colour makes a dramatic impression and shows in everything from his large-scale layered oil paintings to his smaller oneoff prints and more intimate watercolour works.
