Living the Changes Lea Bridge Road

Living The Changes is a series of environmental portraits and in-depth stories I have been shooting along the Lea Bridge Road, London, for the last four years. The River Lea was bridged in 1745 as the road grew into a main commercial route into London. Today a journey down the same route offers a diverse wealth of culture, food, social change, faith, industry, commerce, migration and leisure. But unless you are a proud member of this community, it can go unnoticed, as people travel from Waltham Forest into Hackney along the A104 during their daily commute. As a documentarian I want to photograph people who belong to this community, listen to their stories, ask them what they most like about the Lea Bridge Road, what they least like and what changes they had noticed. I wanted to give a sense of the journey along road too, so I jumped on a 56 bus at Whipps Cross, sat on the front seat on the top deck and filmed the whole journey, two and a quarter miles, to the Lea Bridge roundabout. To me the Lea Bridge Road is the real multicultural London that so often goes unheard and unseen. People living out their lives, generally happily, enjoying their diverse community with the ups and downs of life. Different cultures, backgrounds and faiths all rubbing along together with a great sense of pride. If you’re interested in seeing more have a look at russellboyce.com
