‘Just Building Bridges’ presents a collection of photographs exploring themes around building bridges to justice including social justice and climate justice. Local issues of waste, litter and noise; bigger economic issues such as the fast fashion industry; and some very topical issues of global significance such as the conflicts in the Ukraine will be presented in photography and a zine. ‘Just Building Bridges’ is the result of a series of workshops facilitated by Theresa Easton, 36 Lime Street resident and lecturer in Fine Art at Newcastle University; Carl Joyce, photographer and Filmmaker and Michael Quille, writer and editor from the Culture Matters co-operative.
Exhibitors: Viktoria Simanovski, Yan Tam, Vivy Huang, Emmanuel Fernandes, Ana Maria Fernandes, Larysa Ruzaieva, Fiona Cheng, Isaac Ma, Jeannie Chan.
