An exhibition of photographs entitled ‘Our Neighbourhood’ by children from Greenfields Nursery School and Children’s Centre is on show at the Dominion Centre and Library in Southall, west London.
The exhibition documents a series of expeditions that small groups of children made late last summer and originated from their desire to become more engaged with their neighbourhood. They wanted to hear, taste, smell, touch and navigate the physical everyday workings of their immediate surroundings, outside the nursery. The project encouraged children to react and respond to what they were seeing through the medium of photography.
Viewed from their unique perspectives and using 35mm digital SLR cameras, Greenfields’ children documented their rich and diverse suburban district of Southall through its architecture, food, people, cultural pursuits and religious practices.
