Looking for exhibition items

    Hi there all,
    I'm putting an exhibition together for this years Electric Picnic (1st weekend in September) on the themes of waste, particularly in the construction industry, and ecological housing. Just wondering whether any of you guys have any good quality prints relevant to such themes which you'd like the chance to exhibit?

    It's a small space and I already have some material so I'd be looking for 6 - 8 items max. I just mention this so that hopefully everyone understands that if I get offered lots of quality work 'll have to be selective.

    If you're interested please pm me or post links to your photos asap and we'll take it from there.

    Mods: hope it's OK to post this here, I wasn't really sure where to put it so feel free to move or whatever.

    Cheers all.

    Whether the photos are for sale would be up to the indivuals who own them, but this isn't a commercial gallery type arrangement, we're just trying to say/show something about the environmental cost of waste in a creative way rather than preaching at people.

    The budget we are working with is very small, I'm expecting to end up out of pocket personally on the venture so it would be better if people could offer exhibition-ready prints. Having said that if somebody was offering fantastic work that needed to be got ready for presentation we could discuss it. But please don't anybody mistake this for a commercial opportunity, it's just a chance to exhibit your work. The crew, myself included, are all working for free to build the thing and it will cost us money to do it, so we'd prefer to source artwork from like minded folk who are into the idea of what we're doing.

    hth.
