Exit
Setting my camera up on a bollard outside the A10 exit of Liverpool Street station, I focused on the top of the escalator to catch people as they came off the conveyor belt, faces glued to phones or coffee cups in hand (recyclable, of course).
I watched and wondered where these people were going.
No doubt some were off to work or places to be; important appointments or lovers’ trysts; a round of golf, tourists (heads stuck in Google Maps) while a few were definitely locals- you could tell by the way they accelerated off the escalator and knew precisely where they were headed.
This is an ongoing project and I shot the following images over a 10 week period during 2023. All images are shot on film using a twin-reflex Yahica Mat camera.
