PS The Camera Club @ 16 Bowden Street is the place where you never know who you can bump in to. On the afternoon of our photo-shoot with Dan we met Ada, who was visiting the club's building doing her architectural research. So we gladly invited her to capture the moment. This is how she became part of the story too! Thank you, Ada!
About Ada: Ada Bartholomew 24 | Nigerian Heritage Architecture Student At London South Bank
"It is an honour being a part of a great piece of work, and all it took was vulnerability and being myself. In a world where the new generation is so stuck up in their own problems making them a bitter sweet individual, they... as in myself lose touch with the present. I was fortunate to be at the right place at the right time to be encounter a lovely experience. My reason for being at the camera club is because it is the case study for a design project at University. Instead of fish out as much information on the building via the holy grail we call the internet, why not visit it in person. There is no better way of learning about something than interacting and seeing it in the flesh.
The mission was to go in, talk to a couple of people gathering information and measure the place to create a floor plan, but fate had better plans in mind. While doing my thing, a lovely lady which I was soon to find was Kate Coe approached me and had an interest in what I was doing. One thing led to another and ended up taking a few photos with her. It still amazes me how a little interaction can turn into an opportunity to create work of art, and now I realise it is places like these that makes this possible."
